GNU 'getline' function causes g++ to fail on OS X #3

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
I just downloaded ea-utils.1.1.0-190.tar.gz onto my Mac (OS 10.6) and tried to 
compile it, but got this error.

$ sudo make install
grep: ea-utils.spex: No such file or directory
g++ -O3 -o fastq-clipper fastq-clipper.c
fastq-clipper.c: In function 'int main(int, char**)':
fastq-clipper.c:138: error: 'getline' was not declared in this scope
make: *** [fastq-clipper] Error 1

I'm pretty sure the getline function is GNU specific, which restricts the use 
of ea-utils to Linux. I wouldn't imagine it to be too difficult to use 
something more portable (fgets perhaps) that would also allow the code to run 
on other Unix flavors (OS X, Solaris, BSD, etc).

...unless you're choosing only to support Linux...

fastq-join.c has a built-in getline... the rest of them *could* have it, but 
the linux builtin version is a mote faster, so i didn't want to do that by 
default.

Really i need something to generate a config.h ... hopefully not 
automake/autoconf because it's enormous and weird and not necessary.   Maybe a 
perl script that checks to see if you have getline?  perl configure.pl ... make?

Great software!  Has anyone successfully been able to run ea-utils on Mac OS X 
(10.7)?  I can't get fastq-mcf to run on my Mac Pro, but it runs just fine on a 
Linux server.  I'd rather process my files locally, though.  A port to Mac OS X 
would be very much appreciated!
Thanks!

Note: I would gladly port If I had a Max OSX machine to use/try out.

getline is now included for all non gnu

I didn't see that you had updated the software.  I tried it on my Mac Pro and 
it works great now.  Excellent work!

I am getting the same message as the first poster:

sudo make install
grep: ea-utils.spex: No such file or directory
g++ -O3 fastq-lib.cpp -o fastq-clipper fastq-clipper.c
fastq-lib.cpp: In function ‘int read_line(FILE*, line&)’:
fastq-lib.cpp:32: error: ‘getline’ was not declared in this scope
fastq-clipper.c: In function ‘int main(int, char**)’:
fastq-clipper.c:138: error: ‘getline’ was not declared in this scope
make: *** [fastq-clipper] Error 1

I am using the latest release of ea and OSX 10.6.8. Is there any solution to 
this? thanks!

Version of ea is: ea-utils.1.1.2-301.tar.gz

remove these lines 

#ifndef  __GNUC__

(this is what "autoconf" is for, but autoconf overly complicates things --- if 
i had a mac shell account to tinker with, i'd probably be able to figure 
something lightweight out )

I tried that and now I get this:

sudo make install
grep: ea-utils.spex: No such file or directory
g++ -O3 fastq-lib.cpp -o fastq-clipper fastq-clipper.c
fastq-lib.cpp: In function ‘int read_line(FILE*, line&)’:
fastq-lib.cpp:32: error: ‘getline’ was not declared in this scope
fastq-clipper.c: In function ‘int main(int, char**)’:
fastq-clipper.c:138: error: ‘getline’ was not declared in this scope
make: *** [fastq-clipper] Error 1

The two files in which I tinker were: fastq-lib.cpp and fastq-lib.h

Thanks!

pull down a newer version of those 2, the new one contains a getline function

#ifndef  __GNUC__

...etc.

essentially you need the getline on a mac/bsd, but not on linux (or 
mingw/cygwin)

Still not working I get the getline error all the time. I think I will try in 
another machine where I have Linux. Thanks anyhow!

if you can create a shell account for me, i'll fix it on your box.  i tried to 
find a company offering mac shell accounts, but there don't seem to be any.
