gdb 7.12 doesn't compile as C++ (tried with g++ 4.9) on Solaris (tried 10 and 12, sparc and x86). The following patch (relative to the 7.12 release, though I expect most if not all issues to be present on trunk, too) fixes this. Only a few of the changes bear explanation: * Initially, compilation failed whereever defs.h. was included: In file included from /vol/src/gnu/gdb/gdb-7.12/gdb/gdb.c:19:0: /vol/src/gnu/gdb/gdb-7.12/gdb/defs.h:630:33: error: 'double atof(const char*)' conflicts with a previous declaration extern double atof (const char *); /* X3.159-1989 4.10.1.1 */ ^ In file included from /usr/include/stdlib.h:17:0, from build-gnulib/import/stdlib.h:36, from /vol/src/gnu/gdb/gdb-7.12/gdb/common/common-defs.h:32, from /vol/src/gnu/gdb/gdb-7.12/gdb/defs.h:28, from /vol/src/gnu/gdb/gdb-7.12/gdb/gdb.c:19: /vol/gcc-4.9/lib/gcc/i386-pc-solaris2.10/4.9.0/include-fixed/iso/stdlib_iso.h:119:15: note: previous declaration 'double std::atof(const char*)' extern double atof(const char *); ^ This is due to this gem in gdb/defs.h which seems to have been present like forever: #ifndef atof extern double atof (const char *); /* X3.159-1989 4.10.1.1 */ #endif In the Solaris headers, the appropriate functions are in namespace std, thus the conflict. I've wrapped the defs.h declaration in !__cplusplus to avoid this; perhaps it can go completely instead. * All the casts are necessary to appease g++ and should be pretty obvious. * The sol-thread.c changes are here to handle /vol/src/gnu/gdb/gdb-7.12/gdb/sol-thread.c: In function 'void _initialize_sol_thread()': /vol/src/gnu/gdb/gdb-7.12/gdb/sol-thread.c:1252:36: error: invalid conversion from 'void*' to 'void (*)(int)' [-fpermissive] if (!(p_##X = dlsym (dlhandle, #X))) \ ^ /vol/src/gnu/gdb/gdb-7.12/gdb/sol-thread.c:1255:3: note: in expansion of macro 'resolve' resolve (td_log); ^ and are modeled after linux-thread-db.c (try_thread_db_load_1). The patch allowed both 32 and 64-bit C++ builds on sparc-sun-solaris2.10 and i386-pc-solaris2.10 to complete. The resulting binary hasn't seen more than a smoke test (invoke it on itself, b main, run) yet. When investigating the failure to detect -static-libstdc++ support (more below), I found two more issues which only show up with -Werror: /vol/src/gnu/gdb/gdb/local/gdb/procfs.c: In function 'ssd* proc_get_LDT_entry(procinfo*, int)': /vol/src/gnu/gdb/gdb/local/gdb/procfs.c:2487:19: error: variable 'old_chain' set but not used [-Werror=unused-but-set-variable] struct cleanup *old_chain = NULL; ^ Unless I'm mistaken, you need to run do_cleanups on every return from the function. Afterwards, I ran a 32-bit compilation, which (after adding --disable-largefile to avoid In file included from /usr/include/sys/procfs.h:28:0, from /vol/src/gnu/gdb/gdb/local/gdb/i386-sol2-nat.c:23: /usr/include/sys/old_procfs.h:39:2: error: #error "Cannot use procfs in the large file compilation environment" #error "Cannot use procfs in the large file compilation environment" ^ and two more instances) revealed /vol/src/gnu/gdb/gdb/local/gdb/top.c: In function 'void gdb_safe_append_history()': /vol/src/gnu/gdb/gdb/local/gdb/top.c:1170:59: error: format '%d' expects argument of type 'int', but argument 3 has type 'pid_t {aka long int}' [-Werror=format=] = xstrprintf ("%s-gdb%d~", history_filename, getpid ()); ^ Fixed by casting pid_t to long and printing it as such.

README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
