[M3devel] need some help with linker error

Sun Sep 1 00:07:32 CEST 2013

Python 3.x is very incompatible with Python 2.x. That is one of the worst things about Python imho -- they don't take compatibility seriously.
Please use 2.x.

I'll see if I can form the code to be valid for both 2.x and 3.x but I'm not hopeful.

What version of Python? Maybe too old?

upgrade (i.e. your cmd) needs to include, not skip, mklib.

Compare it to the others.

The fix was in mklib and your cmd varies in this respect.

Jay:

I tried upgrade.py, without success.
Here are the results:

C:\cm3\Sandbox\scripts\python>python upgrade.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "upgrade.py", line 4, in <module>
    import pylib
  File "C:\cm3\Sandbox\scripts\python\pylib.py", line 900
    PackageDB = (PackageDB or map(lambda(a): a.replace("\n", "").replace('\\', '/').replace("\r", ""), open(PKGSDB)))
                                        ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I’m not familiar with python, so I’m not in a position to debug what is wrong.

RCC_upgradeCM3.cmd looks incorrect.

Please try upgrade.py.

No, I ran my batch/CMD scripts, but these are based on what you had described previously as the correct steps.
Is there a new dependency or step I need to be aware of?

Did you run upgrade.py?

I appreciate your help.

I just updated via CVS to get all your latest changes, but I am still getting the error with non-unique match for _xmm.

See below:
…
msvcrt.lib

m3core.def : warning LNK4022: cannot find unique match for symbol '_xmm'
m3core.def : warning LNK4002: __xmm at 41f00000000000000000000000000000 defined in dtoa.obj
m3core.def : warning LNK4002: __xmm at 80000000000000008000000000000000 defined in dtoa.obj
m3core.def : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _xmm
m3core.lib : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals

Can you point me in the right direction to solve this problem?

Thanks,
Randy Coleburn

This is fixed now too.

Dragisha had introduced heap corruption in FSWin32.m3 trying to improve Unicode support.

I updated m3-sys/mklib to ignore these.

Let me know if there are any more problems.

No. There is no chance of this either.

I forget how we generate the .def file but we need to exclude names "like" this -- that start _xmm at .

These are floating point constants for code that uses sse2.

You are targeting 32bit, right?

Still, I guess these might occur, with newer compilers.

I'll look into it.

We already have to code exclude the older forms of floating point constants.
