Hi,
I used WxWidgets when writing my application.
When I tried to compile my application on my mips machine I got out-of-
memory problem.
I have 256M dram on my machine and I my linux kernel is 2.6.10.
Could it be the that compilayion takes so much memory? I am building a
very simple GUI....
The message I get when I compile is:

/usr/local/include/wx-2.8/wx/image.h:136: warning: dereferencing type-
punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules

When I type free before starting compilation I get:

#free
total       used       free     shared    buffers
cached
Mem:        255352     142624     112728          0      12140

Swap:            0          0          0

Thanks a lot!

That's the price for using C++.

With only 256MB RAM you should have at least 1GB of swap space.  Your
compilation would still crawl of course.

This might be a bug in GCC. What version did you use?
