Xlf 2.2 problem with Aix 3.2.1

Xlf 2.2 problem with Aix 3.2.1

Post by Ronald Aar » Tue, 10 Nov 1992 19:29:54



I have a problem with the xlf 2.2 compiler since I updated from Aix 3.1.5 to
3.2.1. After the update I installed the compiler, but now I get a warning
every time I invoke it:

Quote:> Error occurred while initializing the message system in file: xlfsmsg.cat
> Error occurred while initializing the message system in file: xlfmsg.cat

Nevertheless, all messages are displayed correctly. A similar message is
shown when a compiled Fortran-program issues a message.

My message files are in ($LANG=C)
  /usr/lpp/xlf/bin/default_msg    (dated: Aug 12 1991)
  /usr/lpp/msg/En_US              (dated: Aug 09 1991)

I found symbolic links in:
  /usr/lib/nls/msg/C
  /usr/lpp/msg/C
  /usr/lpp/msg/prime

Just one example:
       /usr/lpp/xlf/bin/default_msg/xlfmsg.cat
       /usr/lpp/msg/En_US/xlfmsg.cat
       /usr/lib/nls/msg/C/xlfmsg.cat -> /usr/lpp/xlf/bin/default_msg/xlfmsg.cat
       /usr/lpp/msg/C/xlfmsg.cat -> /usr/lpp/xlf/bin/default_msg/xlfmsg.cat
       /usr/lpp/msg/prime/xlfmsg.cat -> /usr/lpp/msg/En_US/xlfmsg.cat

All files are world-readable. So what else could be wrong ???
Thanks for any hints.

1. Bug list for xlf 2.2?

The second bug is more serious and I do not have a work around yet.
Attempting to open /dev/tty for input fails.

This is a fragment:
        open(UNIT=10,file="/dev/tty",form="formatted")
        write(6,101)
101     format(' Enter DTHET,DPHI,DPSI,DU0,DV0,DSU,DSV')
        read(10,*,end=301,err=300)DTHET,DPHI,DPSI,DU0,DV0,DSU,DSV

        The read always goes to 301.  It doesn't wait for keyboard input.
The problem is in the 2.2 library.  We have the 1.2 compiler and the 2.2
one (on 2 different machines).  If I compile the /dev/tty code under
1.2 and run it with the 1.2 libraries it reads properly.  If I compile
with 2.2 and run with 2.2 libraries it skips the read.  If I compile
with the 1.2 compiler and run it on the 2.2 machine the read fails.  If
I compile on the 2.2 machine it refuses to run, to even load on the
1.2 machine.
