JAM can't build image

[artemm]

OS: Linux Fedora Core 6

jam, binutils, gcc for cross compiling have been built succesfully.

trying to build haiku image and get this...

$ jam -q haiku-image
...
...
ResComp1 generated/objects/haiku/x86/common/home-config-settings-printers-preview.rsrc

rc: Error! -:2 syntax error, unexpected $undefined

how can i fix it?

[bonefish]

Can you please run the first line ("export ...") and the first two segments of the pipe manually and report what is printed, i.e.:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:generated/objects/linux/lib

and

cat "data/image_directories/home-config-settings-printers-preview.rdef" | /home/haikuos/haiku/generated/cross-tools/bin/i586-pc-haiku-gcc -E -D__HAIKU__ -DHAIKU_DISTRO_COMPATIBILITY_DEFAULT -D__INTEL__ -DARCH_x86 -DHAIKU_TARGET_PLATFORM_HAIKU -iquote . -iquote generated/objects/common -iquote generated/objects/linux/x86/common -iquote generated/objects/haiku/x86/common -

[artemm]

ok. there is a result.

# 1 ""

resource(0, "BEOS:TYPE") #'MIMS' "application/x-vnd.Be.printer";

resource(1, "Printer Name") "Preview";
resource(2, "Driver Name") "Preview";
resource(3, "transport") "";
resource(4, "transport_address") "";
resource(5, "connection") "Local";
resource(6, "state") "free";

and something for this

generated/objects/linux/x86/release/tools/rc/rc -I . -I generated/objects/common -I generated/objects/linux/x86/common -I generated/objects/haiku/x86/common --auto-names -o "generated/objects/haiku/x86/common/home-config-settings-printers-preview.rsrc" -

i don't have "generated/objects/common" DIR! there is only "generated/objects/haiku" and "generated/objects/linux"

[bonefish]

The missing directory is OK. The output looks good so far.

My suspicion is that egrep doesn't work as expected on your platform. Can you add that next part of the pipe ("| egrep -v '^#'") to the command line please, and try again. The first line of the output should disappear. If that doesn't work for some reason, please try "| grep -E -v '^#'" instead.

[artemm]

yes, with (| egrep -v '^{#) line (# 1 "") disappears}

p.s. when i start JAM w\o any options, i have a bunch of errors like (rc: Error! -:2 syntax error, unexpected $undefined)

[artemm]

made some tests with RC it doesn't work!!!

$ rc -o test.rsrc test.rdef
rc: Error! test.rdef:1 syntax error, unexpected $undefined

contents of TEST.RDEF:

resource(1) 1;

also tested with RDEFs from "/src/tools/rc/tests"

[artemm]

something wrong in RC with reading token syntax! tested again and found "enum {};" doesn't work, but "enum{};" works. "enum {};" syntax using in *.rdef from haiku sources...

trying to find the right syntax for other tokens.

[bonefish]

You don't have by any chance a 64 bit processor, use a 64 bit Linux, and didn't configure with --use-32bit?

[artemm]

Everything is 32bit and i didn't configure with -use-32bit

i can't understand why my RC don't work properly?

[artemm]

hmmmm.... some kind of magic! :) did nothing just rebuild RC again and it works now!

but i always have a trouble with line terminating characters if it in MS-DOS style. to prevent compiling errors have to convert all resources to UNIX line terminating style.

Thanks! close the ticket.
