Re: bug in PARI/GP (Segmentation Fault)

Thanks for the quick reply Bill :)

Yes, of course added the main function otherwise it wont run. But only the main function is mine, rest all is the output of gp2c.

It compiles fine with me too, its only when I run it that I get the segmentation fault error. I compiled it with the command generated by the gp2c program in the C file, i.e.,

-c -o hnf.gp.o -O3 -Wall -fno-strict-aliasing -fomit-frame-pointer -fPIC -I"/usr/local/include" hnf.gp.c && /usr/bin/gcc -o hnf.gp.so -shared -O3 -Wall -fno-strict-aliasing -fomit-frame-pointer -fPIC -Wl,-shared hnf.gp.o -lc -lm -L/usr/local/lib -lpari

How are you compiling it? I am new with C and have never used a debugger :( ..... thanks for looking into it btw, much appreciated.

Well you added the main() function, didn't you ?

I compiled your C program and it works fine.
$ ./hnf
Hello

[9, -36, 30; -36, 192, -180; 30, -180, 180]

[6, 0, 3; 0, 12, 0; 0, 0, 30]

How did you compile your program ?
Maybe run it under the debugger (gdb).

Cheers,
Bill
