I thought Sebastian was no longer interested so mailed him directly. We discussed with that point, he said that he was able to comple SSCLI under FreeBSD 5.2.1 some time ago I patched SSCLI for it to compile in this environment: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~>uname -a FreeBSD *** 5.3-RELEASE FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE #0: Mon Apr 18 14:18:26 EEST 2005 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src/sys/i386/compile/HOST i386 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~>gcc -v Using built-in specs.

That's true. But, again, SSCLI is for academical use, so that's just another challenge to fix that. A task for well-trained student ;) I agree that that's not exactly kind for non-trained-yet one ;) Alexander Petrossian, Moscow, Russia P.S. Privatly we discussed couple of GC bugs I've met with Jan Kotas, he (indirectly) says that we have to wait untill November when Rotor Whidbey will roll out. P.P.S Let's keep our fingers crossed that this last date ;) =================================== This list is hosted by DevelopMentor® http://www.develop.com View archives and manage your subscription(s) at http://discuss.develop.com
