'__buitin_va_list undeclared' compile error

[brianon]

Hi,

I'm using gcc 2.95.3 and get the following error on compilation...

c++ -c -g -D__SOLARIS__ -I. -I../../include -o debug.o debug.C
debug.C: In function `void LogMessage(int, char *, ...)':
debug.C:117: `__builtin_va_alist' undeclared (first use this function)
debug.C:117: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
debug.C:117: for each function it appears in.)
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `debug.o'

Can anyone help me with this as I'm stumped ?

Cheers,
Brian.

I was having a problem very similar to this with gcc 2.96.
After reading a few bulletin boards concerning this "bug", I downloaded gcc 2.95 and tried to install it. The "compile" of 2.95 failed for a variety of reasons. After being frustrated, I tried to compile my stuff again using 2.96 and I'll be darned if it didn't work!
I can't explain why and I haven't investigated it any further.

Hope this helps.
Au revior,
Ricky
