Hi

I have some problems in compiling the samples that IPP provided.

Iuse processor PXA26X andthe compiler is MontaVista professional 3.1 for Xscale (gcc3.3.2).IPP is IPP for PCA v3.0.

The IPP is IPP for PCA v3.0.We compilied the sample project SigGen.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The error iformation is:

SigGen.o(.text+0x570): In function `UserInterface(void*)':
: the `gets' function is dangerous and should not be used.

Can someone help us?

Hi,

it is known issue when you are using not suitable toolchain. If you are using IPP v3.0 you should use compiler compatible with gcc2.95. You can ask on Intel Premier Support site what exactly version of tollchain you need.

Or you can move to IPP v4.0, didn't you?

Regards,
Vladimir

Dear Customer,

If you are using the Intel IPP Version 3.0 for Linux,you should use arm-linux-gcc 2.95.3 as the toolchain.

Ifyou areusing the IntelIPP 4.0 for Linux on Intel PXA27x Family Processor ,you shoulduse MontaVista* CEE 3.0 iwmmxt_le-gcc 3.3 as the toolchain.

Please see the release notes for the detailed toolchain information.

Hope it helps.

Thanks,
Ying
