Bug #94615 for Alien-IUP: Don't hardcode gcc/g++

Subject:

Don't hardcode gcc/g++

FreeBSD 10 does not come with gcc anymore, but instead ships clang. It seems that Alien-IUP hardcodes gcc/g++ calls, which fails on clang-based systems. See http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/4d28fe00-bee7-11e3-9d19-f370e0bfc7aa for a sample report. Probably it's better to use cc/c++ instead. This works with both gcc and clang. Regards, Slaven

I see the trouble however this is part of the original makefiles of iup/im/cd packages. What I can do is something like: if ($^O eq 'freebsd' && $Config{cc} eq 'cc') { ... replace s/gcc/cc/ in all *.mak makefiles ... replace s/g++/c++/ in all *.mak makefiles } is this what you mean? -- kmx

This could work. Maybe you can even remove the $^O condition, or be prepared that other operating systems could switch from gcc to clang, too. Regards, Slaven

Sorry, I failed to give a response on this. Yes, looking at http://matrix.cpantesters.org/?dist=Alien-IUP%200.700_5;os=freebsd;reports=1#sl=2,1 it seems that there are successful builds for freebsd 10.
