Summary

0000016: Afterstep 2.2.8 compile errors?

Description

Hi

I'm trying to compile Afterstep on this system:

Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/2.96/specs
gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.3 2.96-113)

But I get a compile error as follows:

make[2]: Entering directory `/mnt/hdd/LinuxSW/WindowManagers/afterstep/AfterStep-2.2.8/libAfterBase'
gcc -O3 -DNO_DEBUG_OUTPUT -Wall -fPIC -I/usr/X11R6/include -c parse.c
parse.c: In function `tokenskip':
parse.c:696: parse error before `register'
parse.c:699: `curr' undeclared (first use in this function)
parse.c:699: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
parse.c:699: for each function it appears in.)
parse.c:715: warning: control reaches end of non-void function
make[2]: *** [parse.o] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/mnt/hdd/LinuxSW/WindowManagers/afterstep/AfterStep-2.2.8/libAfterBase'
make[1]: *** [../../libAfterBase/libAfterBase.a] Error 2

I took look at AfterStep-2.2.8/libAfterBase/parse.c, the declaration
on line 695
int tok_no = 0; ;
had an extra semicolon at the end.

Recompile again, got further, next error:

gcc -O3 -DNO_DEBUG_OUTPUT -Wall -fPIC -I/usr/include/freetype2 -I/usr/X11R6/include -c asfont.c -o asfont.o
asfont.c: In function `fill_text_glyph_map_Char':
asfont.c:1512: `FT_KERNING_DEFAULT' undeclared (first use in this function)
asfont.c:1512: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once

asfont.c: In function `get_text_size_internal':
asfont.c:1659: `FT_KERNING_DEFAULT' undeclared (first use in this function)
make[2]: *** [asfont.o] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/mnt/hdd/LinuxSW/WindowManagers/afterstep/AfterStep-2.2.8/libAfterImage'
make[1]: *** [../../libAfterImage/libAfterImage.a] Error 2

(Problems - perhaps it can't find freetype library, so for now use --without-ttf)
Then configure and compile without ttf and got this error

make[2]: Entering directory `/mnt/hdd/LinuxSW/WindowManagers/afterstep/AfterStep-2.2.8/libAfterStep'
gcc -DNO_DEBUG_OUTPUT -O2 -Wall -fPIC -I/usr/X11R6/include -c kde.c
kde.c: In function `load_KDE_config':
kde.c:119: parse error before `int'
kde.c:120: `len' undeclared (first use in this function)
kde.c:120: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
kde.c:120: for each function it appears in.)
make[2]: *** [kde.o] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/mnt/hdd/LinuxSW/WindowManagers/afterstep/AfterStep-2.2.8/libAfterStep'
make[1]: *** [../../libAfterStep/libAfterStep.a] Error 2

line 120 declares int in the body. Removed declaration here and put it at the beginning of the function.

compile now proceed further and get this error:

gcc -DNO_DEBUG_OUTPUT -O2 -Wall -fPIC -I/usr/X11R6/include -c parser.c
parser.c: In function `config2tree_storage':
parser.c:783: parse error before `*'
parser.c:796: `pterm' undeclared (first use in this function)
parser.c:796: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
parser.c:796: for each function it appears in.)
make[2]: *** [parser.o] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/mnt/hdd/LinuxSW/WindowManagers/afterstep/AfterStep-2.2.8/libAfterStep'
make[1]: *** [../../libAfterStep/libAfterStep.a] Error 2

moved declaration of *pterm in line 796 to beginning, just under unsigned long flags

compiles further, and now get this error:

make[2]: Entering directory `/mnt/hdd/LinuxSW/WindowManagers/afterstep/AfterStep-2.2.8/libAfterStep
gcc -DNO_DEBUG_OUTPUT -O2 -Wall -fPIC -I/usr/X11R6/include -c screen.c
screen.c: In function `get_Xinerama_rectangles':
screen.c:140: parse error before `static'
screen.c:143: `buf' undeclared (first use in this function)
screen.c:143: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
screen.c:143: for each function it appears in.)
make[2]: *** [screen.o] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/mnt/hdd/LinuxSW/WindowManagers/afterstep/AfterStep-2.2.8/libAfterStep'
make[1]: *** [../../libAfterStep/libAfterStep.a] Error 2

moved declarations in line 140, 143 of screen.c to just under #ifdef line,

change these line 143 to statements and put the declation just under the #ifdef line
move line 140 to just under the #ifdef line

Recompile, got further - now get this error:

...probably GTK is too old on my system? Not just GTK, in short, it looks like my system is too old for AfterStep; but in trying to compile it I did come across some tweaks and corrections on the source code that may help with older compilers...

Use or ignore the above as you see fit.
