Bus Error

Is it running on SPARC? That's big-endian, right?

[sala223]

Yes, on SPARC, can you tell me how to fix it, thanks in advance.

[sala223]

I build nsis with gcc 3.4.2. I found a bug is reported regarding this,
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index...49&atid=373085
Is there a workaround or a patch?
I even tried to run makensis on wine, however, it looks like wine doesn't support SPARC.
I really need a solution to run nsis on Solaris 9 SPARC....

[kichik]

That's for big-endian and 64-bit. Is your SPARC 64-bit? If so, there isn't a patch yet. But most compilers support creation of 32-bit applications anyway. You can figure out which one is that for your system and add it using scons' command line parameters.

[sala223]

My machine is SPARC 32-bit, it doesn't support unaligned memory access, there isn't a compilation option for gcc to generate strickly memory-aligned instructions either. Does nsis support Sun Studio Compiler? What should I do if I adopt Sun Studio Compiler?

[kichik]

NSIS uses SCons to build its source code. I don't know much about Sun Studio Compiler, but SCons seems to support sunc++ and friends and even favors it over gcc. So I guess in your case it doesn't recognize it. To figure out why, take a look at scons/SCons/Tool/sun*.py. Then, to add support to the NSIS build system, add a file named sun to SCons/Config and make sure SConstruct loads it for Sun tool chain.
