Infinite loop in CilkPlus gcc

[Nick_M_3]

Well, I say infinite, but I broke in after a few minutes - and it's a trivial program.  The command show causes it, and there are some straces.

I am able to replicate this issue and is fixed in Cilk Plus GCC revision 201063.

Thanks,

Thanks.  But now you have puzzled me.  The instructions say to use

svn update svn://gcc.gnu.org/svn/gcc/branches/cilkplus

But one of the main reasons to use svn rather than snapshots is precisely to keep up with the latest version!  Is there another way to do that?

[Balaji_I_Intel]

I didn't completely understand you...

When using svn, I generally just type "svn update" in the top level source directory and it fetches all the updates. Are you using snapshots?

Thanks,

Balaji V. Iyer.

No.  I am using what the instructions said to do:

svn update svn://gcc.gnu.org/svn/gcc/branches/cilkplus

But it hasn't seen any changes in the past 2 months.  I will try simple svn update.

[Nick_M_3]

Yes, that's the solution.  It now compiles, but there is now a linker problem.  I sill look into that.
