since some days I am no more able to "make all" the latest and greatest fpc from SVN sources, because there are compilation errors for h2pas.pas.

Here comes a log of a session which reproduces the error:

PBRJ:~/Programmieren/Xcode/Pascal/fpc Rolf$ svn update At revision 1091.

I had a look at the source of h2pas.pas, but I found no obvious errors at the reported lines. Has anybody else experienced this problem, or might there be something wrong with my set up.

Any suggestions are welcome.

Best regards

Rolf

I have a same problem with "make all" in the root directory. it crashes on:
line 2890 "yya : array [1..yynacts] of YYARec = (" ...
line 5922 ");"

Attempts for "make all" in the "utils/h2pas/" directory bring errors for the yyg table.
yyg : array [1..yyngotos] of YYARec = (
line 5924 "yyg : array [1..yyngotos] of YYARec = (" ...

    line 6653 );

The error message is attached bellow.

This is a known problem, it's a bug in the powerpc code generator, Jonas is already working on it afaik.

Background: h2pas.pas is generated by yacc from h2pas.y and generates a huge procedure which a real programmer would never create, that's why it poped up so late.

Hi

Is there any workaround to make the FPC compile on darwin? Is there any way I can help?

Thanks

Jan

Dear Jan,

You can "manually" split the procedure yyaction, which is too long, into two and call the procedures in dependence of the parameter yyruleno. example:

rename procedure yyaction to procedure yyaction1

add the split at 100:

99 : begin

          if not stripinfo then
          writeln(outfile,'(* Warning : default value for ',yyv
[yysp-2]^.p,' ignored *)');
          hp:=new(presobject,init_one(t_default_value,yyv[yysp-0]));
          yyval:=new(presobject,init_three(t_dec,nil,yyv[yysp-2],hp));
        end;
   end;
end(*yyaction1*);
procedure yyaction2 ( yyruleno : Integer );
   (* local definitions: *)
begin
   (* actions: *)
   case yyruleno of
  100 : begin

and replace the call of yyaction(-yyn) (somewhere around line 8500 ) by:

   if -yyn < 100 then
       yyaction1(-yyn)
   else
     yyaction2(-yyn);

Is there any way I can help?

Probably not. It is a "Jonas Maebe class of problem" and he is working on it.

FPC compiles on darwin currently. Only h2pas doesn't.

I should have time to fix it Thursday night.

Jonas

(Finally) fixed.

Darwin.
Checked out revision 1162.

That probably means that the directory powerpc/units/powerpc-darwin does not exist. It should be automatically created by the Makefile (at least the units/powerpc-darwin part) if you use "make all" in the fpc dir or "make cycle" in the fpc/compiler dir.

Jonas

....fpc/compiler/powerpc/units/powerpc-darwin does exist.

P Davidson

Trashed and rebuild from fresh svn. All is well.
Error may have been permissions corruption?

Thanks Jonas :)
