Please try with today's tarball and execute manually: (replace 'flex' if necessary)

Code: [Select]

cd amule-cvs/src/
flex --header-file=./Scanner.h -o Scanner.cpp ./Scanner.l
If there is no error message, then it should work fine. I have versions 2.5.33 from feb 2006 and no problems at all.

[lillesvamp]

I tried that and it worked! I would have been even happier if the linking had worked as well ("collect2: ld returned 1 exit status") but I suppose that's off topic.

[wuischke]

Can you post this somewhere?

As Kry seems to be ultra-busy these days I might try to fix this as well.

btw: Can you build any recent aMule version on Mac? I'm searching for someone with Mac, the knowledge to build aMule and the will to test a (possible; already in cvs) fix for the boinc+aMule issue.

[lillesvamp]

If you mean post about the linking problem, there already seems to be a thread dedicated to that here:
http://forum.amule.org/index.php?topic=12676.0

If you mean posting a binary, well I haven't managed to make one yet.

Even if I enjoy compiling stuff from time to time, I don't really have the knowledge or patience to figure out what to do when it doesn't work, or how to make static or universal binaries for that matter.

I'm afriaid I'm not the best choice as an "offical provider" of Mac binaries.

[wuischke]

Well, I just need an "inofficial tester", no binaries. If you manage to get something running and are willing to install boinc, seti@home or something like this for testing a fix for an issue with these things, please contact me.

i was wondering, can anyone compile the latest cvs on windows?
i get the same error as previously posted:

Code: [Select]

./Scanner.l: In function `void LexFree()':
./Scanner.l:191: error: `yylex_destroy' undeclared (first use this function)
./Scanner.l:191: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in.)

the main problem here lies on the fact that MinGW's flex version is 2.5.4 and it doesn't support the --header-file flag as the "./configure " commands warns :

Code: [Select]

configure: Your flex version doesn't support --header-file flag. This is not critical, but an upgrade is recommended Obviously, it's critical...
Also, there won't be a new version so soon like it says on the MinGW website : http://www.mingw.org/MinGWiki/index.php/flex

So if anyone can compile it on windows, could you help by either updating the wiki or posting a solution ?  Thanks in advance .

I ran into the same problem on OpenBSD, touch  src/Scanner.cpp  as a workaround.

[rpog]

centaur, thanks for the reply, indeed that's all it took to go away from the lex error.
i guess i should have read the thread a little better, the same solution was suggested but in a different way .

however now to solve the

Code: [Select]

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status error is another matter to another thread, i guess.

So I am sorta back from the dead... hopefully.


When I run autogen.sh with current amule cvs, I get:

Code: [Select]

Running automake --foreign -a -c -f
configure.in:58: automake requires `AM_PROG_LEX', not `AC_PROG_LEX'

I am using flex 2.5.33 installed via darwin ports.

I haven't compiled aMule in 6 months and I had a system hard drive die on me, so I had to reinstall the 3rd party libraries, etc. In other words, I am not in very good shape to pinpoint what might cause this error.


UPDATE:
I just installed a new version of automake and that seemed to have fixed the above issue.

[ecforum]

I don't understand your technical discussion.
I just want to give you the information that on my slackware 11 with flex 2.5.4 which doesn't support --header-file flag I have the error when compiling aMule-CVS-20070825.

[wuischke]

Hi ecforum,

Could you please upgrade flex to 2.5.33, your version is more than 10 years old.

[ecforum]

Hello Wuischke,

Oh, excuse me : I read (dream...) 2.5.3.3 instead of 2.5.33....

EDIT :
I upgraded but it was not compiling.
I upgraded and it compiled ! (I had to clean all)

Thanks for your help !
