- o It is possible to compile lyx with Tru64 Unix cxx compiler
- version 6.2, provided one uses
- CXX='cxx -std strict_ansi'
- CXXFLAGS='-ptr /tmp/lyx_cxx_repository -g'
- CC=cc
-
- Note that this will not work when compiling directly from the cvs
- repository, due to the tricks used by automake for dependencies. Ask
- Jean-Marc.Lasgouttes@inria.fr for a workaround.
-
- Or rather, it may well work if you are using automake 1.5 and autoconf 2.5
- or greater, but you'll have to patch automake's depcomp first. (Depcomp
- is a little shell script to automagically work out file dependencies
- and it's broken for automake 1.5 and Tru64 :-(). The patch is to be found
- in config/depcomp.diff.

- o On Tru64 Unix, you may have to compile with
- --with-included-string to work around a Tru64 linker limitation
- (the STL string template creates names which may be too long). We
- also had reports that it helps with gcc 2.95.2 on solaris 2.6.
-
- Using Tru64 Unix 4.0e, the std::string is fine.

-
- o On Tru64 Unix with cxx, you may have a compilation error in
- lyx_main.C if you have GNU gettext installed. This is due to a bug
- in gettext. To solve this, you can either (1) configure with
- --with-included-gettext or (2) add -D__STDC__ to cxx flags.
-
- o On Tru64 Unix 4.0e, the STL library routine std::count is broken
- (/usr/include/cxx/algorithm.cc, line 289 on my machine).
- It calculates "n" but does not return it! The fix is to add "return n;" to
- the end of the (4-line long) routine.

-
- o On Tru64 Unix 4.0e, compilation of support/lyxsum.C dies horribly. The
- work-around is to use the old version, 1.18, of this routine. Ask
- Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org> for details.
