Summary: Can't build xmlrpc-c on OS X 10.7.3 with Xcode 4.3.1xmlrpc-c: in gennmtab.o, file too small for architecture x86_64

The relevant error in the log seems to be:

:info:build ld: in gennmtab.o, file too small for architecture x86_64
:info:build clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

I'm not sure why though. You could try using a different compiler as a workaround.

Replying to ryandesign@…:

Excellent! This solved the problem. The command that worked is:

sudo port install xmlrpc-c configure.compiler=llvm-gcc-4.2

I don't understand exactly why that's happening either, but forced llvm-gcc-4.2 instead of clang in r90874.

r90874 is bad. It works perfectly fine on other versions of clang. What version are you seeing the problem with? Please provide:

/usr/bin/clang --verison

Also, examine that gennmtab.o to figure out why it's bad. Provide the C-preprocessed source for it as well as the object file, so we can figure out the problem and not just block all versions of clang from building this project.

I installed XCode 4.3 on a Lion machine, and the problem still exists with llvm-gcc ... puzzling...

That's interesting, it fails for me with Xcode 4.3.1 clang but works just fine with llvm-gcc.

That's

Apple clang version 3.1 (tags/Apple/clang-318.0.45) (based on LLVM 3.1svn)
Target: x86_64-apple-darwin11.3.0
Thread model: posix

and

llvm-gcc-4.2 (GCC) 4.2.1 (Based on Apple Inc. build 5658) (LLVM build)

There's something really, really, really, weird going on here...

I'm grabbing 4.3.2 on this machine now... this is my 100% external machine, so it's not tainted with any internal Apple bits.

comment:12 Changed 13 years ago by drkp (Dan Ports)

I don't really have time to look into this, but let me know if there's something you want me to try.

Builds for me with XCode 4.4, and there's no noise here... so closing. If someone is still seeing this, please reopen with more details. I also updated the version of xmlrpc-c in r96146
