On solaris with gcc-4.3.1, the macro __cplusplus is not defined to
199711L. This is a long-standing issue with solaris. This doesn't much
matter on some platforms, but for matplotlib, what is happening to me
is that through a series of defines and conditionals, the method
putchar, as used here:
./ttconv/ttutil.cpp:void TTStreamWriter::putchar(int val)
gets tokenized by the preprocessor into putc by
/usr/include/iso/stdio_iso.h, here on line 350:
#define putchar(x) putc((x), stdout)
This only happens if __cplusplus is < 199711L. I'm avoiding this by
building using the studio C compiler, but I thought I'd mention this
in case it's possible to detect this during the configuration stage,
and perhaps wrap with something like:
#ifdef
#if __cplusplus <= 199711L
#undef putchar
#endif
#endif
However, I haven't tested this yet. Has anyone else thought about
this?
Thanks,
-Peter

In five years we'll make up another plan.
Or just re-use this one.

I don't have access to that version of gcc on Solaris to test. However, if you find a preprocessor workaround that works for you, I'm happy to test it on Linux/Mac/Windows and commit.
Cheers,

Michael,
I'm going to see if there is a fixincludes route to fixing this, but
in case there isn't, is adding an additional name to the
TTStreamWriter, eg. TTStreamWriter::put_char, out of the question?
Thanks,
-Peter

I assume you mean renaming TTStreamWriter::putchar to TTStreamWriter::put_char. That would be fine. Once you confirm that solves your problem on Solaris, I'll test and commit it here.
