Thank you for your answer. I have upgrated to gcc 3.3.2. Now, c4gl works better, but one problem remains: not all the 4gl files can be compiled. I get errors like: # c4gl -c myfile.4gl c4gl: line 458: 5517 Bus error $I4GLC4 -D -L $LEVEL -o $FBASE.c This error occurs only if the length of the file name is different from 5, 9 or 13 characters; i.e., if I copy myfile.4gl to a.4gl, c4gl -c a.4gl works. (Copying to a0000.4gl or a00000000.4gl works too, but for example c4gl -c a0.4gl fails.) Any idea ? Note: for an unknown reason, c4gl only works if I execute it through /bin/bash.

I normally do that by setting INFORMIXC="gcc -fwritable-strings -m64" in the environment. > This error occurs only if the length of the file name is different from 5, 9 > or 13 characters; i.e., if I copy myfile.4gl to a.4gl, c4gl -c a.4gl works. > (Copying to a0000.4gl or a00000000.4gl works too, but for example c4gl -c > a0.4gl fails.)

If you are thinking 'C Shell', then of course it won't work - it is a Bourne/Korn/POSIX/Bash script. http://www.cs.uu.nl/wais/html/na-dir/unix-faq/shell/csh-whynot.html > Thank you, > Philippe Chantry > > >>Try the following but I do not test in Sol 64 and 4GL FCx. >> >>setenv INFORMIXC /usr/local/bin/gcc -m64>>setenv C4GLFLAGS -fwritable-strings >> >>If I remember the currectly, gcc 2.95 does not have -m64 option , so > > upgrade > >>gcc to 3.3. >> > > ftp://sunsite.tus.ac.jp/pub/sun-info/Solaris/sparc/8/gcc-3.3.2-sol8-sparc-local.gz > >>Regards. >> >>-- >>Tsutomu Ogiwara from Tokyo Japan. >>ICQ#:168106592 >> >> >> >> >> >> >>>From: "Ph.
