gnu_getopt.h by Eric Lindblad 07-09-2015 http://www.ericlindblad.blogspot.com Subsequent to the compile of libxapian.so.22.6.8 and libxapian.a there are executable source files using gnu_getopt.h which has an #ifdef __CYGWIN__, perhaps that file would need attention in order for compile to proceed on my modified SFU Interix 3.5 setup The 1 'ambiguous overload' report on SFU Interix I

Vista Ultimate by Eric Lindblad http://www.ericlindblad.blogspot.com Email: GeirfuglApS <at> yahoo.com I there anyone with a 32 bit Vista Ultimate (or Enteprise) box who would be willing to download from MS & install 'Utilities and SDK for UNIX-based Applications_X86.exe', compile & install make-3.81 as gmake in /usr, compile & install m4-1.4.9 as gm4 in /usr, compile

Question by Eric Lindblad 05-09-2015 http://www.ericlindblad.blogspot.com I would enquire if anyone has an opinion on whether it might be a possibility that adding the following #ifdef in certain xapian-core-1.2.21 /common and/or /backends files following the string #include <sys/types.h> might move closer towards resolution the 'ambiguous overload' issue. +#ifdef __INTERIX +#

Xapian Developers, [I initially thought to install xapian on SFU (Interix 3.5) on MS XP but could not compile libuuid] [getopt.h, inttypes.h, and stdint.h taken from SUA (for Vista) and installed in SFU (Interix 3.5)] If someone is inclined to write a modified libuuid and label it for use with Interix <version(s)> to satisfy the dependency for an xapian <version(s)> install on

Having modified software packages' creation scripts some of which use patches, I'm familiar with their use and authorship. It was the specific patch Olly mentioned which I did not know yet if it was needed or indicated. Obviously autoconf is indicated for a bootstrap when xapian is obtained from Github, but, the package maintainer for the MSYS2/MINGW xapian-core1.4.1 had not listed

Regarding the earlier mail about [xapian-core-1.2.24] /tests/api_replicate.cc compiled under MSYS/MINGW (g++ 5.3.0). It seems likely that the error was specific to certain g++ versions. https://github.com/mxe/mxe/issues/1448 Eric at ERICS-NETBOOK /c/WORK $ cat test.cpp #include <stdlib.h> int setenv(const char *name, const char *value, int overwrite) { return _putenv_s(name, value); }

Dear Olly Betts, I think the tests for the perl module Search-Xapian-1.2.21.0 might be fewer in number than the perl tests included with xapian-bindings-1.2.21. If some of the tests have similar but modified content I do not know. I am not so skilled as to interpret the compared test results. If you want to suggest a paired earlier version of Xapian to a specific xapian.bindings version, I might

Report by Eric Lindblad 30-09-2015 http://www.ericlindblad.blogspot.com The xapian-core-1.2.21 'ambiguous overload' error on the files /backends/brass/brass_check.cc and /backends/chert/chert_check.cc appear to be resultant of a bug reported in gcc-3.3.4, which was fixed for 3.4.2 [Sept. 6, 2004] and 3.5. Bug 16854 - streams missing "long long" specializations on Tru64

xapian-core-1.2.24 Unclear yet about any possible use of patches, either for MSYS/MINGW and/or MSYS2/MINGW, for xapian-core versions(?), but here are sections of the 'configure' and 'make check' logs I output from a MSYS/MINGW (g++ 5.3.0) compile on XP SP3 (32 bit) Home Edition (xapian-core-1.2.24). configure log checking for setenv... no checking for _putenv_s... yes

Report by Eric Lindblad 28-08-2015 http://www.ericlindblad.blogspot.com As of Windows 8.1 MS has discontinued enabling for Interix, so perhaps there is little or no interest in this e-mail's subject matter. NB: As far as possible languages for xapian-bindings I only have be able to compile earlier versions of Tcl with a static library on Interix 3.5, Perl versions fail 'make check',

That would sound sensible, but I have stepped through the code (my copy, obviously) with gdb, checking on the file with lsof in another session. The sequence is

Hello. Xapian 1.2.9 uses UNIVERSAL->import, deprecated in perl-5.14.2 We noticed that we could not get our perl tests to pass since UNIVERSAL->import is deprecated in perl-5.14.2. The message given was: UNIVERSAL->import is deprecated and will be removed in a future perl at /usr/local/share/perl/5.14.2/Search/Xapian.pm line 3158 Johan Sydseter ABCStartsiden
