Please help me get the GNU arbitrary precision arithmetic library working.  Thanks.  -- David Bower 






--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is the contents of the report attached to this email:




// file:  arbitraryPrecisionArithmetic_1.cpp


#include <iostream>
#include <gmpxx.h>


int main()
{
  mpz_class x("7612058254738945");
  mpz_class y("9263591128439081");


  std::cout << "\n     " << x  << "\n*\n    " << y;
  std::cout << "\n---------------\n" << x * y << "\n\n";
}


Description of what is wrong:


     I am trying to run the simple program above on a MAC OS X Lion 10.7.4 command line.  (This program was copied directly from the wikipedia webpage describing GNU arbitrary precision arithmetic.)


     I get the following error when I run the command "gcc -lgmpxx -lgmp arbitraryPrecisionArithmetic_1.cpp"  :


     arbitraryPrecisionArithmetic_1.cpp:4:19: error: gmpxx.h: No such file or directory


     I also tried the command "gcc -lgmpxx -lgmp -I/gmp-5.1.0 arbitraryPrecisionArithmetic_1.cpp" with the same results.


GMP version number:   5.1.0


Test program:  See top of this file.


Configuration options:

1. I downloaded the tarred file gmp-5.1.0.tar.bz2 from the GNU arbitrary precision arithmetic website.
2. I unpacked the file with tar -xvf gmp-5.1.0.tar.bz2
3. This produced a directory "gmp-5.1.0".
4. I changed to the directory gmp-5.1.0
5. I ran the command  ./configure --disable-shared --enable-static (sometimes preceeded with "sudo")
6. I ran the command "make install"
7. I ran the command "make check".  Every test passed with this last command.


Compiler version.  When I type gcc -v I get:


     Using built-in specs.
     Target: i686-apple-darwin11
     Configured with: /private/var/tmp/llvmgcc42/llvmgcc42-2336.11~28/src/configure --disable-checking --enable-werror --prefix=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/llvm-gcc-4.2 --mandir=/share/man --enable-languages=c,objc,c++,obj-c++ --program-prefix=llvm- --\

Result of typing uname -a:

Result of ./config.guess


     coreisbr-apple-darwin11.4.0


Result of ./configfsf.guess :  Command not found.

-- Any help you can give would be appreciated.  Thanks,
