[GRASS-dev] compilation of grass on AIX 7.1

[Ivan Barka]

Hi devs,

I tried again recent grass7 on AIX 7.1 with gcc.

I had error in lib/gis:

gcc  -lstdc++
 -I/gpfs/home/senko/dev/grass/grass7/dist.powerpc-ibm-aix7.1.0.0/include
-I/gpfs/home/senko/dev/grass/grass7/dist.powerpc-ibm-aix7.1.0.0/include
 -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -DGRASS_VERSION_DATE=\"'2013'\"
-DPACKAGE=\""grasslibs"\"
-I/gpfs/home/senko/dev/grass/grass7/dist.powerpc-ibm-aix7.1.0.0/include
-I/gpfs/home/senko/dev/grass/grass7/dist.powerpc-ibm-aix7.1.0.0/include -o
OBJ.powerpc-ibm-aix7.1.0.0/plot.o -c plot.c
plot.c:34:15: error: conflicting types for 'nearest'
/usr/opt/freeware/bin/../lib/gcc/powerpc-ibm-aix7.1.0.0/4.6.1/include-fixed/math.h:1397:21:
note: previous declaration of 'nearest' was here
gmake: *** [OBJ.powerpc-ibm-aix7.1.0.0/plot.o] Error 1

After renaming the variable "nearest" to "nearesta" in lib/gis/plot.c it
worked.

But next strange error was in lib/vector/diglib:

if [ "" != "" -a -f "".html ] ; then gmake html ; fi
==============TEST=============
gmake test
gmake[1]: Entering directory
`/gpfs/home/senko/dev/grass/grass7/lib/vector/diglib'
diff OBJ.powerpc-ibm-aix7.1.0.0/test.tmp test64.ok
diff: Missing newline at the end of file
OBJ.powerpc-ibm-aix7.1.0.0/test.tmp.
diff: Missing newline at the end of file test64.ok.
.......
gmake[1]: *** [test] Error 1
gmake[1]: Leaving directory
`/gpfs/home/senko/dev/grass/grass7/lib/vector/diglib'
gmake: *** [default] Error 2

Full output is in file diglib_gmake.txt

Thanks for any advice.

Ivan
