[aspectc-user] Problems building SVN version of Puma

Well, the documentation still isn't very good. But at least the most
important classes are now documented. Don't forget to generate the
reference manual with 'make doc'. You should also take a look into the
annotator example for the first steps with Puma. The parser example you
may give a try for inspecting the syntax and semantic trees. It also
shows how to get the configuration of the target compiler.

It seems that ac++ is crashing, but I can not reproduce it. Here is my
session:

$ ac++ --version
ac++ 1.0pre3 (Mar 16 2006)

$ ag++ --version
ag++ 0.6  built: Mar 16 2006

$ g++ --version
g++ (SUSE Linux) 4.3.1 20080507 [gcc-4_3-branch revision 135036]

$ uname -msr
Linux 2.6.25.20-0.1-pae i686

$ make cleanall
...

$ make
...

Works as expected.

Has anyone else the same problem with the current version from SVN?

Matthias
