Could you try switching to the other definition of EIGEN_INIT_NEON_PACKET2/EIGEN_INIT_NEON_PACKET4 (in the current devel version, either line 54-55 or 58-59 in src/Core/arch/NEON/PacketMath.h). If that works, tell us which branch works and a flag which can detect your compiler. The LLVM branch gives me a warning "extra braces are nonstandard" and the same error, too many initializer values. Ok, would have been too easy :D Do you have any documentation how to initialize a vector of 2/4 elements properly with your compiler? If nothing helps, we may have to resort to storing the values in a stack-local array then load them into the actual Packet. (This would require adapting every call of EIGEN_INIT_NEON_PACKET#) I sure would like easy. :) There is this page on initializing vectors, though I wasn't sure if that was specific to the armcc compiler or not. http://infocenter.arm.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.arm.doc.dui0472k/chr1360928368293.html I'm not sure if you saw it or not, but I did attach a patch that works for me. It uses the load functions here http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.dui0472k/chr1360928371756.html According to the neon guide, using loads is indeed the recommended way to go. Then, I would also use loads for the 2x cases too. Applied: https://bitbucket.org/eigen/eigen/commits/2e8706a5cc31/ and also use load for the 2d case: https://bitbucket.org/eigen/eigen/commits/3d1962c9b176/ Summary: Bug 1240: Remove any assumption on NEON vector types.

Created attachment 712 [details] Compile error fix in PacketMath.h The ARM DS-5 5.20 compiler fails compiling with the following errors: "src/Core/arch/NEON/PacketMath.h", line 113: Error: #146: too many initializer values Packet4f countdown = EIGEN_INIT_NEON_PACKET4(0, 1, 2, 3); ^ "src/Core/arch/NEON/PacketMath.h", line 118: Error: #146: too many initializer values Packet4i countdown = EIGEN_INIT_NEON_PACKET4(0, 1, 2, 3); ^ "src/Core/arch/NEON/Complex.h", line 30: Error: #146: too many initializer values static uint32x4_t p4ui_CONJ_XOR = EIGEN_INIT_NEON_PACKET4(0x00000000, 0x80000000, 0x00000000, 0x80000000); ^ "src/Core/arch/NEON/Complex.h", line 31: Error: #146: too many initializer values static uint32x2_t p2ui_CONJ_XOR = EIGEN_INIT_NEON_PACKET2(0x00000000, 0x80000000); ^ I am currently using version 3.0.5 but trying the latest code it has the same problem. Whenever this is fixed, I will be updating to the latest version.
