Error description
keyword __ptr32 qualifier is not accepted by the C++ compiler. Compiler Parser rules does not consider __ptr32 keyword in pointer typedefs. User is getting unexpected text error message. The keyword __ptr32 is a qualifier that can be applied to a pointer type to constrain its size to 32 bits. This language extension is provided to facilitate porting structures with pointer members from 31- to 64-bit mode. The qualifier is accepted and ignored in 31-bit mode. Unfortunately, this qualifier is not accepted by the C++ compiler: --- a.C --- typedef char* MyCP; struct S { MyCP volatile d; // Works MyCP __ptr32 c; // Does not work }; --- end a.C --- Run: xlC a.C Output: "./a.C", line 5.9: CCN5063 (S) The text "__ptr32" is unexpected. CCN0793(I) Compilation failed for file ./a.c. Object file not created
Local fix
Use __ptr32 qualifier on the underlying declaration
