APRUTIL LIBRARY STATUS: -*-text-*- Last modified at [$Date: 2002/09/13 23:15:22 $]
Release:
0.9.2 : in progress 0.9.1 : Released as alpha on September 11, 2002 0.9.0 : Not released
2.0a9 : released December 12, 2000
RELEASE SHOWSTOPPERS:
* Separate apr build process so that apr-util can build on its own.
Suggestions: Create an apr-build subproject and start using it.
RELEASE NON-SHOWSTOPPERS BUT WOULD BE REAL NICE TO WRAP THESE UP:
* Solaris's Sun Freeware (sfw) package has a busted gcc/ld setup.
This gcc passes -L/opt/sfw/lib to /usr/ccs/bin/ld, but does not pass -R. Therefore, when trying to run the code using a
library from /opt/sfw/lib (say, libdb), the run-time linker
will not look in /opt/sfw/lib and the program will die.
Status: Workaround is to add "-R/opt/sfw/lib" to LDFLAGS.
Should check latest sfw package set and see if Sun
may have fixed this.
Another work-around would be to add /opt/sfw/lib to the dynamic loader path via the command crle or directly in the /var/ld/ld.config file.
I have not try it with sfw but I use it for other softwares.
* GDBM usage of errno is not-thread-safe. Fix.
Other bugs that need fixing:
Other features that need writing:
* possibly move test/testdbm* to util/dbu Justin says: Do we still want to do this? testdate is now in test. Status: Greg +1 (volunteers)
Documentation that needs writing:
* API documentation Status:
* doc the lifetimes of apr_dbm return values
