Yes, we get the same warnings. I think these are a symptom of a problem with the C compiler on IRIX 6.2 being a little too strict, but they don't seem to cause any problems. The C statements that cause the warnings are generated by the IRIX lex tool, so if their compiler issues warnings about them, they should either fix lex or the compiler. > My problem is, that I've got only a PowerChallenge (irix64) to compile on > irix64 even if I supply the switch --target=mips-sgi-irix6.2. --Russ _____________________________________________________________________ Russ Rew UCAR Unidata Program address@hidden http://www.unidata.ucar.edu
