RE: [cdt-dev] GNU Tool-chain for Solaris

Title: Message
This is basically what I remember too.  Although I also think there were some people who were using or extending the default toolchain definitions for their own compilers who couldn't handle the space.(?)  We added that space in, and their compilers that were previously working suddenly started having errors, so we changed it back.  At least I kind of remember something like that.  However, I think maybe at that time this space/no space was hard-coded into the system, rather than customizable via xml, so the decision was to return it to its original state for compatability.(?)  My memory is a little fuzzy, though.  Anyone else remember this?

I think it was because we had one variant that couldn’t handle the space (macosx comes to mind). I actually think we have more variants that need the space than can’t handle it.

I think that the “generic” GNU compiler definition has never had a space after the –o.  I don’t know the reason.

This issue has always bugged me. Do we know/remember why we don’t have a space after the ‘-o’?

Subject: [cdt-dev] GNU Tool-chain for Solaris

 

I have heard from a few people with a problem using the built-in GNU tool-chain on Solaris because a space is required after the –o output flag.  Currently, they have to modify the tool-chain to get it to work.  Is there anyone using Solaris who has not had to modify the tool-chain?  I will create Solaris specific project types with a space after the output flag if no one speaks up.  What I don’t want to do is make the change and then find that a different implementation of the GNU tool-chain on Solaris requires that a space not be present.

 

Thanks,

Leo
