[omniORB] OmniOrb under Alpha VMS 7.2-3 ir.idl build problem

I'm new to OmniOrb. I'm trying to build version 4.1.3 on an old
Alphastation 255/233 running
VMS 7.2-3. I get errors from omniidl when it tries to process ir.idl

I'm attaching the error report and the source ir.idl

The following report looked relevant but I'm not clear on details of
solution in my environment.
http://www.omniorb-support.com/pipermail/omniorb-list/2006-July/027858.html
[omniORB] autoconf build problem on HP-UX - wrong alloca used

Has anyone else tried building for VMS 7.3-2? Any recommendations
gratefully
received.

Regards,
Frank

I have been using omniORB on VMS 7.3-2 for some time now with few problems.

I am at omniORB 4.1.2 but I doubt if that makes a difference. The compiler
versions I use are the same as yours except for Python:

Python 2.3.1 (#0, Sep 28 2003, 12:57:56) [DECC] on OpenVMS

Where did you install your python from? Did you build it yourself?

Can you send the whole build log? That might reveal something useful.

It looks as though omnicpp is doing something wrong to the file. Can you
try running omnicpp on ir.idl and send the output? You can see the way
omnicpp is run in the fragment of log you sent.

Cheers,

Duncan.
