RE: [Libunwind-devel] libunwind library/source for Linux 64 bit

[POKHARAKAR Sandeep]

Hi,

After compiling this code, I am getting below error.

"libunwind_i.h: error: #error Host has unknown byte-order."

I checked the code and found that if hpux is not defined then we get
this error.

Does it mean that the code is compatible to HPUX only?



Thanks,
Sandeep Pokharakar

I think so, though you might experience some issues with unwind accuracy
depending on what you do. I recently posted some patches that try to
address most of the issues.

http://www.google.com/search?q=libunwind+download first link seems
pretty useful :-) You should use the GIT version, not the 0.99 release
tar ball.
