Problem using CFront 3.03

[napi]

I managed to compile CFront 3.03 on my Ubuntu Linux kernel 2.6.20-15.
I compiled
CFront with g++ version 4.1.2 and used bison 2.3 to process the
gram.y file.

When I compiled this program using "CC -F hello.C":
---------------------------------------
hello.C-------------------------------------------------
struct y
{ int p;
} r;

main()
{
}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

it gave these error messages:

# 1 "hello.C"

/* <<AT&T C++ Language System <3.0.3> 05/05/94>> */
char __cfront_version_303_xxxxxxxx;
/* < hello.C > */

# 1 "hello.C"
char *__vec_new ();

# 1 "hello.C"
char __vec_delete ();
typedef int (*__vptp)();
struct __mptr {short d; short i; __vptp f; };

# 1 "hello.C"
extern struct __mptr* __ptbl_vec__hello_C_[];

# 1 "hello.C"
"hello.C", line 4: error: syntax error, unexpected expression object
function type object constructor
"hello.C", line 4: error: syntax error, unexpected $undefined
"hello.C", line 4: error: type expected for r

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

g++ compiles "hello.C" without any problem.

What could be the problem? Thanks for any tips.

Btw, does anyone have the latest 'gram.y' for use with
CFront that has been updated since CFront version 3.03?

Where did you score a copy of CFront?

I bought it from Lucent some time ago. You could also download it
from:
http://www.softwarepreservation.org/projects/c_plus_plus/cfront/release_3.03/source/

Not sure if it's complete though.

Hi, napi,

I have to compile CFront with g++ version 4.1.2, but I have a lot of problems. Could you please help me with some instructions or suggestion?


Thanks so much,
Wesley
