Description alancio 2003-08-18 16:40:09 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1.3)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          gcc-3.3.1 
OS:          Solaris

I am trying to build kdemultimedia with gcc-3.3.1, but I get the following error:

kdemultimedia-3.1.3/noatun/modules/winskin/vis/visQueue.cpp:20: error: ISO C++ forbids variable-size array

Is this a plugin or is it integral part of noatun?
If it is a plugin, how can I disable it so I can go on compiling the other things? make -k? setenv DO_NOT_COMPILE?


This is the complete output:

Patch fixing the problem from Red Hat (rawhide .src.rpm)

I have found this patch in the KDE Multimedia source RPM from Red Hat rawhide.
It seems to fix the problem with Red Hat's version of gcc 3.3.1.

Comment 2 Neil Stevens 2003-08-19 00:18:17 UTC

winskin is a UI plugin, so yes it can be skipped if you have to. 
 
If you really want that plugin, though, try compiling without -pedantic.

Comment 3 alancio 2003-08-19 01:52:30 UTC

Thanks, it compiled without -pedantic. 
 
This is a bug because I didn't have -pedantic in CFLAGS, so if the Makefile 
autoconf/automake generates by itself has this flag then it should work.
