o It is possible to compile lyx with Tru64 Unix cxx compiler
version 6.2, provided one uses
CXX='cxx -std strict_ansi'
CXXFLAGS='-ptr /tmp/lyx_cxx_repository -g'
CC=cc
Note that this will not work when compiling directly from the cvs
repository, due to the tricks used by automake for dependencies. Ask
Jean-Marc.Lasgouttes@inria.fr for a workaround.
Or rather, it may well work if you are using automake 1.5 and autoconf 2.5
or greater, but you'll have to patch automake's depcomp first. (Depcomp
is a little shell script to automagically work out file dependencies
and it's broken for automake 1.5 and Tru64 :-(). The patch is to be found
in config/depcomp.diff.

o On Tru64 Unix, you may have to compile with
--with-included-string to work around a Tru64 linker limitation
(the STL string template creates names which may be too long). We
also had reports that it helps with gcc 2.95.2 on solaris 2.6.
Using Tru64 Unix 4.0e, the std::string is fine.
Angus 22 March, 2002.
o On Tru64 Unix with cxx, you may have a compilation error in
lyx_main.C if you have GNU gettext installed. This is due to a bug
in gettext. To solve this, you can either (1) configure with
--with-included-gettext or (2) add -D__STDC__ to cxx flags.
o On Tru64 Unix 4.0e, the STL library routine std::count is broken
(/usr/include/cxx/algorithm.cc, line 289 on my machine).
It calculates "n" but does not return it! The fix is to add "return n;" to
the end of the (4-line long) routine.
Angus 22 March, 2002.
o On Tru64 Unix 4.0e, compilation of support/lyxsum.C dies horribly. The
work-around is to use the old version, 1.18, of this routine. Ask
Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org> for details.

o On solaris 2.6, you may have to compile with --with-included-string

o LyX can be compiled on Tru64 Unix with either GNU's gcc or the default
Compaq cxx compiler.
There are no Alpha-specific problems with gcc.
The following notes all refer to compilation with the Compaq cxx compiler.
LyX cannot be compiled on Tru64 Unix 4.0d or 4.0e with the default cxx
compiler. You should upgrade to at least cxx V6.2, to be found at
ftp::/ftp.compaq.com/pub/products/C-CXX/tru64/cxx/CXX622V40.tar. Users
running Tru64 Unix 4.0f and greater should have no real problems compiling
LyX.
cxx V6.2 will compile LyX out of the box.
cxx V6.3-020 is also known to work, although there is a bug in
/usr/include/cxx/deque. See Angus Leeming <leeming@lyx.org> for the
patch.
At the time of writing, cxx V6.5-026 is the latest cxx compiler. It is
/not/ recommended. Not only do the bugs in the system header files still
exist, but the compiler itself appears to be both buggy and extremely
bloated (trebles the size of the stripped LyX binary).
In order to compile LyX with the cxx compiler, you should run configure
with the following flags:
CXX='cxx -std strict_ansi'
CXXFLAGS='-nopure_cname -nocleanup -ptr /tmp/lyx_cxx_repository -O2'
CC='cc -std1'
The -nopure_cname flag is needed for compilers V6.3 and above because
LyX makes use of functions like popen, pclose that are defined in the
c version of <stdio.h> but are not formally part of any c/c++ standard.
They are not, therefore, included in the <cstdio> header file.
