Re: [aperi-dev] Full support for Solaris?


Dale,
thanks for the patch.  

In the next email, I'm sending 2 files directly to you (not the entire list):
       cclog_115_20070809A_solaris2.zip   (for SPARC)

        cclog_115_20070809A_solaris2-amd.zip   (for x86)

I have not used these packages (no solaris box).  So perhaps you can give them a try and then we can check them into the Aperi project based on your results (early beginnings of Solaris support).  I hope this is helpful to you.  

I'll work on incorporating that patch into the code base.  Have a great holiday!

Is there a Legal vetting process that code must go through prior to  
be committed to the repository? I'd like to take a look at that first  
before trying to re-implement something that may already exist. I  
already see bits of Solaris code and references sprinkled  
throughout... so hopefully there's a a chance that could happen?

I realized after starting tonight that whether any existing Solaris  
code is made available or not, the prospect of porting hinges on the  
availability of this cclog tool. I think I would have EventScanner  
working tonight if that were available.

BTW, here's a patch for you all. I noticed that in the Linux  
EventScanner code, you're calling close() instead of fclose() on a  
FILE-type stream, not a file descriptor. It's just something I  
happened to catch as I was going through the code.
