[omniORB] omniORB3, HPUX 10.20, gcc2.95 , omniidl problem

[mahadevan]

Hi Sai-Lai,

Thanks for your suggestion . I tried to compile python by g++, 
but it is complaining about missing main symbol. May be this one is due to 
a HP's C & C++ diffrenet entry points for main symbol. 

Is there any way I can run omniORB 2.8/3.0 on my HPUX 10.20 with my system
config as given in previous mail. I am desperate to run it on HPUX, But I
cannot upgrade my HPUX CC to aCC. Please bail me out, if it is possible.

As you said before, the problem is in threads-library.
FYI, I am showing the stack trace for the dump of src/examples/echo/eg1 :
<==============
$gdb eg1 core
...

Core was generated by `eg1'.
Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.  

warning: The shared libraries were not privately mapped; setting a
breakpoint in a shared library will not work until you rerun the program.
