Well, I finally got around to it. The patch can be found in the usual place: http://gitorious.org/~jsd/fg/sport-model/commits/sport The commit message says: Fix bug: substrings in LDFLAGS Fix bug: substrings in CPPFLAGS Fix bug: now check libraries (not just headers) for plib. Fix it so that configuration works (mostly) as easily on 64-bit machines as on 32-bit machines, even for users who have compiled OSG from source and need to specify --with-osg=/some/dir. Check for working CXX compiler. More informative error messages. Spelling. Slightly more informative logging. More parallel to SimGear version. ================== I also ported some of the better ideas from the FG side back to the SG side: http://gitorious.org/~jsd/fg/sport-simgear/commits/sport ========================= For today, the headline is that I've finally got it to the point where I can do "make distclean ; make" for SG and FG and the whole thing compiles without so much as a warning ... and without requiring 64-bit users to say any weird incantations over the compile scripts. The same procedures that have always worked on 32-bit machines now work on 64-bit machines, AFAICT. There are still major weaknesses in the configure/build system. Some things that never worked right (on 32-bit machines or otherwise) still don't work. I will discuss those in a separate thread. And I'll wait a while before discussing them, so nobody will get confused about which bug is which. There sure was a big nest of bugs in acinclude.m4. It's funny how when those get fixed, the issues that some people tried to call "a bug between keyboard and chair" and "an unfortunate mistake" aren't problems anymore. And there's much less need for new, arcane documentation. As soon as these fixes get committed, I will consider the 64-bit configuration snafu a closed issue. Things are definitely moving in the right direction. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SOLARIS 10 is the OS for Data Centers - provides features such as DTrace, Predictive Self Healing and Award Winning ZFS.
