getopt problems when compiling with TCC on kindle 3

[kelmscott]

Hey everyone - new forum member,

I'm using the tinycc (tcc) package created by geekmaster to compile a small C program which plays the game oware in the console (MyTs) on a kindle 3. Everything seems to work fine except that when I execute the binary none of the arguments seem to be passed to the compiled program. I'm not a programmer but assume this has something to do with getopt.

On my laptop running Arch Linux I've compiled the same program with an x86-64 version of tcc using the include files that come in the kindle-tcc package and the arguments work.

So I'm wondering if either anyone might have a clue what the issue is, or might have the necessary tool-chain built to cross-compile the attached file (awale.txt - I had to use txt for it to upload but it is a C program).

Thanks in advance for any help.

You can run an attachment search on me, I have a post with up to date tcc binaries that I update periodically.

There's a good chance the issue was fixed upstream, as such, newer binaries would do the trick.

EDIT: On the off-chance it's a weird tcc issue, here's a one built w/ gcc.

How are you executing your Kindle program (the one which "does not work")?
Are you using KUAL? A terminal (which one)? ssh? telnet? Something else?


Note: It is very hard to answer a "does not work" question.

I tried - from my original post:

Maybe not enough info?

I want to thank you for trying to help. Unfortunately I'm still running into problems. When I try to use the binary you cross compiled I get:

./awale: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.7' not found (required by ./awale)

When I try to compile using the newer tcc on the kindle I get:

awale.c:414 error:incompatible types for redefinition of 'best_move'

I've never gotten this error compiling with either gcc or tcc on my laptop, and I know a little C, and can't see where the problem is.

Again, thank you so much for trying.
