Hello. I'm trying to compile FireBird 1.5.1 with gcc 3.4.1 but it fails. But gcc 3.2.2 compiles fine. What is the problem? Here is a fragment of output:

Quote:

Thanks.

IIRC, the gcc 3.4 is more strict with correct template syntax than previous versions.

Is there an option to make compiler less strictier? Or the only way is to modify sources?

I think there is no easy way.

According to the changelog, there are plenty of source level incompatibilities and a binary incompatibility with c++ libraries.
