Hello! I got problems with building CLN on PowerPC64. uname -a Linux blade1 2.6.5-7.252-pseries64 #1 SMP Tue Feb 14 11:11:04 UTC 2006 ppc64 ppc64 ppc64 GNU/Linux make ... In file included from base/cl_N.h:6, from base/cl_as_err.cc:7: ../include/cln/number.h: In constructor `cln::cl_number::cl_number()': ../include/cln/number.h:191: error: `cl_FN_tag' undeclared (first use this function) ../include/cln/number.h:191: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in.) And it seems i know why does it happen: <config.h> ... #ifndef __powerpc64__ #define __powerpc64__ 1 #endif ... <object.h> ... #if defined(__alpha__) || defined(__ia64__) || defined(__mips64__) || defined(__powerpc64__) || defined(__sparc64__) || defined(__x86_64__) #define cl_word_alignment 8 #endif ... // Definition of the tags. #if !defined(CL_WIDE_POINTERS) #if (cl_word_alignment == 2) #define cl_FN_tag 1 #define cl_SF_tag 3 // must satisfy the cl_immediate_p predicate! #endif #if (cl_word_alignment == 4) #define cl_FN_tag 1 #define cl_SF_tag 2 #endif #else // CL_WIDE_POINTERS // Single Floats are immediate as well. #define cl_FN_tag 1 #define cl_SF_tag 2 #define cl_FF_tag 3 #endif There is no branch defining tags for powerpc64 (cl_word_alignment==8) Please, tell me what values should i write in #define or explain what am i doing wrong. Thank you! -- Best regards, Dmitry mailto:khutornoy@gmail.com

How to cite cln

Hello cln-developers and cln-listmoderator, I want to know how it is the correct form to cite cln. 1. first in a paper? 2. in a GNU-software for Linux that uses the library? best regards -- Ms. C.

Results of CLN build
by Richard Haney 12 Jul '06

I have encountered problems with testing my build of CLN using mingw tools under Windows XP and cygwin-bash. In particular, the test "test_I_io" fails with a message "Illegal number syntax" evidently from function read_number_bad_syntax() in "cl_read_err_bad.cc", but when I comment out the "test_I_io" test in "test_I.cc", the rest of the tests are fine. I describe the considerable machinations and efforts I went through to see if I could determine specifically what the error was, but CLN proved horrendously complicated for the purposes of even preliminary debugging efforts. Those efforts and problems are discussed in more detail near the beginning of my post "Results of GiNaC (& CLN) builds" to the ginac-list at http://www.cebix.net/pipermail/ginac-list/2006-July/000857.html .
