[Mono-dev] Compile problem on linux ARM/EABI

[Wyborski Marek]

I got Mono compiled with GC-Boehm. But when I run it now I always get an error like this:

root at 172.16.10.114:/opt/mono-nokia# ./mono mcs.exe

Unhandled Exception: System.TypeInitializationException: An exception was thrown
 by the type initializer for Mono.CSharp.Location ---> System.ExecutionEngineExc
eption: SIGILL
  at System.Collections.Hashtable..ctor (Int32 capacity, Single loadFactor, IHas
hCodeProvider hcp, IComparer comparer) [0x00000]
  at System.Collections.Hashtable..ctor (Int32 capacity, Single loadFactor) [0x0
0000]
  at System.Collections.Hashtable..ctor () [0x00000]
  at Mono.CSharp.Location..cctor () [0x00000] --- End of inner exception stack t
race ---

Because the address is always 0x00000 I think it may be a problem with the Boehm-GC. But when I run "make check" in the Boehm-GC-Folder everything seems to be fine:

make[2]: Entering directory `/opt/gc6.8'
Completed 3 tests
Allocated 5552517 collectable objects
Allocated 306 uncollectable objects
Allocated 3750000 atomic objects
Allocated 34440 stubborn objects
Finalized 6609/6609 objects - finalization is probably ok
Total number of bytes allocated is 188446180
Final heap size is 9179136 bytes
Collector appears to work
Completed 160 collections
PASS: gctest
==================
All 1 tests passed
==================
make[2]: Leaving directory `/opt/gc6.8'
make[1]: Leaving directory `/opt/gc6.8'


Someone has got a hint for me? I don't know what could be the problem..

The default is "included", which uses the libgc/ subfolder. "boehm"  
uses an external Boehm GC, probably a newer version.
