[Gems-users] Compiling problems with transaction.c in Gems 2.0

["li he" <cranelea@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear list,

I've set up gems-2.0 environment and I'm trying to compile the transactional microbenchmarks "sortedList" included in it. After having the files inside my simulated simics machine (a SPARC with Solaris 10), when I compile it,errors appeared like
 /var/tmp//ccP5j6V5.s: Assembler messages:
 /var/tmp//ccP5j6V5.s:1121: Error: Illegal operands
After having googled the maillist,there is a solution which works:" Can you try using the assembler located in /usr/ccs/bin/as and recompile gcc with these flags:  --with-as=/usr/ccs/bin/as   --without-gnu-as "
how to recompile? Download the gcc source file and install it with configuration that "--with-as=/usr/ccs/bin/as   --without-gnu-as"?

Thanks a lot!
