/jan/ Hi,
/jan/ I got epoch 4.2 just now and tried to build it on a HP9000/720
/jan/ running HP-UX 8.07. I used HP:s cc. epoch 4.1 builds and runs
/jan/ just fine. I haven't EIGHTBIT_KEYBOARD defined. I use the
/jan/ same config.h as I did in 4.1.
/jan/ It compiles OK, but when it comes to ./temacs -batch -l
/jan/ ../epoch-lisp/inc-vers this happems:
/jan/ % ./temacs -batch -l ../epoch-lisp/inc-vers Loading
/jan/ ../epoch-lisp/inc-vers... SELECT ERROR : NOT A SCREEN! Abort
Somehow Epoch is getting into screen.c:x_select_screen when it
shouldn't. Dunno how yet. Doesn't happen on our HP 720:
HP-UX cocobolo A.B8.05 A 9000/720 2002606721
Anybody else see this?
/jan/ It doesn't matter if I compile with or without optimization.
/jan/ I tried this also:
/jan/ % ./temacs -batch -l ../epoch-lisp/loadup.el dump Loading
/jan/ ../epoch-lisp/loadup.el... Loading subr... ... Finding
/jan/ pointers to doc strings...done Dumping under names epoch and
/jan/ epoch-4.2.0
/jan/ and it worked! The resulting binary seems to be OK (I haven't
/jan/ run it very long). It still doesn't give me a startup message
/jan/ so I guess the fix in 4.2 isn't effective on HP-UX :-(.
The binary won't be quite right, since you probably won't have the
emacs-version routine or variable or
emacs-built-time/emacs-build-system (from version.el).
Probably the startup message is aborting since emacs-version doesn't
exist.
/jan/ If you wan't I can give you stack traces from the 'SELECT
/jan/ ERROR' crach.
Please do...
Marc
