Carlo, I have been taking a look at what headers are needed in order to build a C module outside of the Ganglia tree. So far I have determined that the following headers need to be made publically available: debug_msg.h ganglia.h gm_mmn.h metric.h protocol.h Maybe - error.h(should be renamed to error_msg.h) and scoreboard.h Are there any other headers that we should consider or can the above list be consolidated in anyway? Also, I have been moving all of the public headers into a new /include directory to try to minimize the include path that is required to build all of the ganglia components. Do you think that an include directory within the ganglia source tree is necessary or should the headers stay where they are and only be copied during make install? thoughts?
