Compiling on AIX OS

[Domingo Alvarez Duarte]

Hello !

Trying to compile https://sqlite.org/2020/sqlite-src-3310100.zip on AIX
7.1 operating system for exercise and to know the peculiarities of
building software on this OS and I'm getting this error, somehow tclsh
that is installed on this OS do not wrap/hide OS incompatibilities.

====

tclsh /home/mingo/dev/sqlite-src-3310100/tool/mkshellc.tcl >shell.c
illegal access mode "rb"
     while executing
"open $topdir/src/shell.c.in rb"
     invoked from within
"set in [open $topdir/src/shell.c.in rb]"
     (file "/home/mingo/dev/sqlite-src-3310100/tool/mkshellc.tcl" line 32)
gmake: *** [Makefile:1079: shell.c] Error 1

Cheers !

Going forward after fixing the access mode from "rb" to "r" we get this
error (tclsh8.4):

What version of tcl do you have installed?

(At the tclsh prompt, do a `puts $tcl_patchLevel`)

I'm pretty sure the full build scripts require tcl 8.5 or newer. Maybe try
the -amalgamation or -autoconf versions?

Hello and thank you for reply !

As I said it's an exercise to know the peculiarities of compiling on
this platform and I'm exposing this experience here in hope it can help
others and improve sqlite build system.

If what you mention is correct about requiring tcl 8.5 or newer then the
configure procedure probably should check this and report the problem.

Cheers !
