From: metlov AT fzu DOT cz (Konstantin Metlov) Subject: groff-1.11a fallen :) (no problem anymore) 7 Mar 1998 19:20:14 -0800 Message-ID: <001601bd47ba$1a46f930$d81ae793.cygnus.gnu-win32@pc216b.fzu.cz> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="koi8-r" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: "GNU-WIN32" I'm in a hurry to report a success ;)) After playing several days with groff.... O... really !!! I even tried to debug it with gdb ;))) Attempts to debug lead to strange results... something as I try to "print" instance variable(C++) inside the method and it has one value,... outside of the method it had another.... Then I remembered, that to debug optimized programs is stupid... tried to recompile it without -O switch ... And .... IT WORKED !!!! So, to fix it for cygwin it is needed to throw out -O switch in two places in top level Makefile. With the best regards, Konstantin Metlov. PS Sorry for many details describing the process... in short (sed -e 'y/-g -O/-g/' Makefile)( right ?) PPS I tested this on groff-1.11a as mentioned in subject. But it could work for 1.10 also... PPPS The fact that non-optimized program works and optimized does not shows that there are some errors in compiler... PPPPS If somebody interested in my debugging attempts I can describe a patch which for sure leads to strange behaviour, mentioned... PPPPPS I used install program by Roger Kommer and smoked a cigarette during make install. PPPPPPS THE LAST ONE ;)) - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
