Hi, all,
I also got the "incomplete type errors" and found that in
.../GL/opengl/g_disp.h, there is
#if defined(_LANGUAGE_C) || defined(__cplusplus)
around the declaration of struct __GLdispatchTableRec.
This "if defined" must have been evaluated to FALSE, since when I took it out,
I lost those incomplete type
errors (since now it was declaring the struct).
I then had to modify g_noptable.c to take out a lot of (void *) since the
compiler was complaining that it was not ANSI
permissible to set a function pointer to a (void *).
Then, I got link errors, which I got rid of by modifying s_global.c. A similar
thing to above:
#if defined(unix)
was blocking the definition of
__GLcontext *__gc = NULL;
When I took this out, the link errors went away and I did get a build of the
server.
However!!!! I haven't done anything with it like install it or run it - so
maybe it still isn't right...
It seems that unix and _LANGUAGE_C are not defined and should be. Probably
it's better to define them than
to just remove the #ifdefs, and I will probably go back and do it that way...
Hope this is helpful.

Subject: [ogl-sample] Problems Building Xfree86 using Quick Recipe
Platform: RedHat 6.1, egcs-2.91.66
After ignoring the missing file messages from gmake distsi, I built the
missing Makefile in $XTOPDIR/xc/programs/Xserver/GL/opengl by hand and
get rather impressive compile errors:
In file included from global.h:40,
from ddxcx.h:61,
from ddxci.c:39:
context.h:410: field `listCompState' has incomplete type
context.h:412: field `currentDispatchState' has incomplete type
context.h:413: field `savedDispatchState' has incomplete type
The identifiers shown above are declared as follows:
__GLdispatchState *dispatchState;
__GLdispatchState listCompState;
__GLdispatchState *listCompExecState;
__GLdispatchState currentDispatchState;
__GLdispatchState savedDispatchState;
(hmm, is this a compiler bug?)
Later on, lots of errors occur like
g_lexec.c: In function `__glle_ListBase':
g_lexec.c:74: request for member `dispatch' in something not a structure or
union
>From this experience, I would like to know if anyone got the X-Server compiled
and/or what compiler version may do the job.
Any help will be appreciated,
fred.
