Re: [Yhc] can't build on MacOS?

Hi, the autoconf script uses AC_CHECK_LIB(gmp, __gmpz_init) which is the recommended way to check for GMP of versions >= 3 according to http://swox.com/gmp/manual/Autoconf.html Which version of libgmp do you have? and if you write a trivial program like: #include int main(){ mpz_t m; mpz_init(m); return 0; } does it compile with gcc -o delete-me -lgmp ? In any case, I've pushed a patch that will hopefully make it work for earlier versions of gmp. Let me know if it works :-) Cheers Tom Malcolm Wallace wrote:

I'm having trouble getting started with building yhc on MacOS. The configure step does not get very far:

$ ./configure --prefix=/sw checking for gcc... gcc checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out checking whether the C compiler works... yes checking whether we are cross compiling... no checking for suffix of executables... checking for suffix of object files... o checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes checking for gcc option to accept ANSI C... none needed checking for __gmpz_init in -lgmp... no configure: error: cannot find libgmp

However, I do have libgmp installed, in /sw/lib, and my LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable points to that directory. Any ideas?
