Dear Gustaf,

sorry I confused you. the error came out when "make" has been issued. at the end of the list of warnings (that are produced by "make"), there is "error code 1".

thanks.

john

when configure runs without errors, then the problem must be somewhere else.

you wrote:

"XoTclGetClass" declared 'static' but never defined
'CallStackGetFrame' declared....
'XOTcl_DeprecatedCmd' defined but not used
'NSTail' defined but not used....

Please report the first the first error message, you got, and as well the command leading to the error message. there is no function "XoTclGetClass", only a "XOTclGetClass", and this is quite later in the file. seems, as if you picked a few random messages you are seeing.

what os you are working with? which compiler do you use?

my OS is FreeBSD 6.1. the screen only left me the last few lines of the messages.

you can always redirect the output to a file.

however, there is a freebsd port for xotcl,
This "port" is actually the freebsd installer, i think, it asks whether it should install xotcl as an oacs module. This port was developed by martin matuska, who works in my institute. If i remember correctly, xotcl is already included in the newest freebsd release.

martin made as well a port for openacs + dotlrn
