It finally compiled! [Re: NewBie question: Segmentation faults]

Sat Apr 1 00:00:00 GMT 2000

I encountered teo problems during the compile:
 - The symbol inf in java/lang/Double.h was not defined so I just deleted
any reference to it in the file as in the Double.h from 2.95.1
 - The libffi library was not linked into libgcj.so. After looking around
for awhile, I found out that the libffi was not properly copied into the nof
directory. I copied it made a clean compile and it worked.
 - I compiled my HelloWorld program and it worked too (that moment was
pretty exhilirating :)
Now I compiled gdb-000220 and I still get the following error when running the
program:
Starting program: /home/adenis/java/HelloWorld
Don't know how to run. Try "help target".
I compiled the program with:
gcj -g --main=HelloWorld -o HelloWorld HelloWorld.java
and:
gcj -g1 --main=HelloWorld -o HelloWorld HelloWorld.java
The gdb issue is not as important as the compiler issue (it would be nice to be
able to have a debugger but I could do without it). But I wanted to thank you
all for your patient help to a beginner,
Thanks,
Alexis
