Hi,
I've been able to build bitcoind on Solaris/OpenSolaris/OpenIndiana for the last couple of years with just minor changes and some googling; most of the times the lack of the "std::" namespace in front of each map<> was the problem.
I'm not proficient in C++, so I have to say that I don't understand most of its source code
Today I've tried to build branch 0.11 on latest OpenIndiana (Hipster.201510) with GCC 4.8.5 and I've just stumbled on my first problem with C++
In src/serialize.h I get
CXX libbitcoinconsensus_la-ecwrapper.lo
In file included from ecwrapper.cpp:7:0:
serialize.h: In function 'unsigned int GetSerializeSize(int8_t, int, int)':
serialize.h:190:21: error: redefinition of 'unsigned int GetSerializeSize(int8_t, int, int)'
inline unsigned int GetSerializeSize(int8_t a, int, int=0) { return 1; }
^
serialize.h:189:21: error: 'unsigned int GetSerializeSize(char, int, int)' previously defined here
inline unsigned int GetSerializeSize(char a, int, int=0) { return 1; }
The same error on lines 201/202 and 213/214, so given the comment present on lines 201 and 213 (and the fact that int8_t and char should be the same here) I've just commented out those lines like this
//inline unsigned int GetSerializeSize(char a, int, int=0) { return 1; }
inline unsigned int GetSerializeSize(int8_t a, int, int=0) { return 1; }
inline unsigned int GetSerializeSize(uint8_t a, int, int=0) { return 1; }
....
//template<typename Stream> inline void Serialize(Stream& s, char a, int, int=0) { ser_writedata8(s, a); } // TODO Get rid of bare char
template<typename Stream> inline void Serialize(Stream& s, int8_t a, int, int=0) { ser_writedata8(s, a); }
template<typename Stream> inline void Serialize(Stream& s, uint8_t a, int, int=0) { ser_writedata8(s, a); }
...
and I'm now able to go past this error.
Question: is this something due to my GCC version or what?
