Build failed
 -> task failed (err #129): [<b:C:\DOCUME~1\gjc\ns-3.0.11\src\core\object.os>]

g++ version is 3.4.5 (current mingw).

Comment 1 Gustavo J. A. M. Carneiro 2008-02-18 12:34:03 UTC

CXX=/usr/bin/g++-3.4 ./waf configure && ./waf build

Was able to reproduce in Linux, with g++ 3.4.  Same error.  Is g++ 3.4 officially supported by NS-3?

Comment 2 Gustavo J. A. M. Carneiro 2008-02-18 12:38:06 UTC

PS: if gcc 3.4 is officially supported, is there any chance of adding a gcc 3.4 build to the build bots?... ;-)

Comment 3 Tom Henderson 2008-02-18 12:45:06 UTC

Yes, I showed this to Mathieu a week or two ago; apparently not a trivial fix.  Sorry for not filing a bug.

yes, we can add gcc-3.4 to the build bots once this is fixed.

Comment 4 Gustavo J. A. M. Carneiro 2008-02-18 12:53:29 UTC

But maybe adding a gcc-3.4 build bot sooner rather than later will "encourage" Mathieu to fix it?... just an idea... :-)

*** Bug 128 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Comment 6 Mathieu Lacage 2008-03-14 13:09:39 UTC

Bug fixed on ns-3-param branch to be merged soon.

tested on ubuntu 7.10 64 bit g++ 3.4
