RE: New cvs repository, please?

2000-12-10 Thread William A. Rowe, Jr.
No ... I was waffling, and went back to my note discussing this
on dev-apr before I choose.  We had discussed an apr-iconv, not 
an apr-xlate, so I decided on apr-iconv.  That is, after all,
the specific package we are patching/redistributing.

(cc'ing dev@apr.apache.org)

Did you want an apr-iconv *and* apr-xlate directory/module?

It works on Linux, of course.  I still suspect that this use of poll
just doesn't work on some systems.

It hangs on 3.4.  I need to get somewhere quickly or I'd try it on
Linux now.  Frankly, that use of poll looks questionable and I am
guessing that FreeBSD doesn't wake up a poll in that situation.

Heck, I wrote a new libtool from scratch for OS/390; this was key to
having OS/390 DLL support in Apache 2.0 without having to have a
drastically hacked-up build :)/:(

+1 from me, as long as we use the apr+apr-iconv-provided iconv only
when the system doesn't provide one or we determine that the
system-provided one is bogus

Is this to say that the linker binds on the symbol name instead of the
ordinal number?

Is anyone else seeing the test hang when trying to poll the file as socket?
I'm seeing it on FreeBSD 4.1.1 and as it's the first test done it stops make
test from working fully.

It's not just BeOS, OS/2 DLLs are the same. I'm trying to figure out how to
get libtool to make them but I'm not getting very far :(
