FW: GCC-3.0.3 failure in CPP

[Robert F. Baptista]

I feel so good about your organization.

I presented this error to bugs, to gnu, to whatever I could

find over 1 month ago and not a single response.

What a great bunch of professionals.

This makes me really trust your software (NOT).

Subject: GCC-3.0.3 failure in CPP

My problem is with GC-3.0.3 on Solaris 8

 

If you have a non-blank first line (that is not a directive), followed by

a directive (such as #include), the CRs are left off.

 

file1: 

line1

#include "file2"

line5

 

file2:

line2

line3

line4

 

when running cpp -P file1, I get this result:

line1line2

line3

line4line5

 

If I put a blank line or a directive on line1 of file1 then the behavior is correct:

 

file1:

#define test 1

line1

#include "file2"

line5

 

the output is:

 

line1

line2

line3

line4

line5

 

It takes 1.5 hours to do a full build/install on Solaris 8 so it's hard to make changes

and debug.  If I had a PC version, it would probably compile in less than a minute and

I could debug it, find the problem and update the Solaris install.

 

If someone has an answer on where to hack cppmain.c please send

it to me at address@hidden

 

thanks,

Robert
