John Ericson	8433027e35	Build a minimized Nix with MinGW ... At this point many features are stripped out, but this works: - Can run libnix{util,store,expr} unit tests - Can run some Nix commands Co-Authored-By volth <volth@volth.com> Co-Authored-By Brian McKenna <brian@brianmckenna.org>	2024-04-17 12:26:10 -04:00
John Ericson	1f4525531e	Add configure test to ensure GCC bug is fixed ... https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=80431 (test is adapted from issue, test does not test for GCC-specific behavior but rather absence of bug, so test is good with other compilers too.)	2023-10-31 12:09:46 -04:00
Niklas Hambüchen	57daa860e8	autoconf: Fix C++17 detection not working on Ubuntu 16.04. ... And probably many other distributions. Until now, ./configure would fail silently printing a warning ./configure: line 4621: AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_17: command not found and then continuing, later failing with a C++ #error saying that some C++11 feature isn't supported (it didn't even get to the C++17 features). This is because older distributions don't come with the `AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_17` m4 macro. This commit vendors that macro accordingly. Now ./configure complains correctly: configure: error: *** A compiler with support for C++17 language features is required. On Ubuntu 16.04, ./configure completes if a newer compiler is used, e.g. with gcc-7 from https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-toolchain-r/+archive/ubuntu/test using: ./bootstrap.sh ./configure CXX=g++-7 --disable-doc-gen --with-boost=$(nix-build --no-link '<nixpkgs>' -A boost.dev)	2019-07-03 04:32:25 +02:00
