Somehow your compiler identifies itself as being a BSD platform. Instead it should support the SOLARIS definition. If you know this shouldn't be the case, add the correct string to plib/src/util/ul.h. After that everything should compiler again.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] FlightGear without Joystick
Somehow your compiler identifies itself as being a BSD platform. Instead it should support the SOLARIS definition. I think it's a different issue. Taken from current 'README': PORTABILITY and DEPENDANCIES: [...] JS -- Currently Linux/Windows/BSD only. plib-1.4.2 detects the presence of a joystick and decides not to build 'libplibjs': [ configure ] checking joystick.h usability... no checking joystick.h presence... no checking for joystick.h... no checking linux/joystick.h usability... no checking linux/joystick.h presence... no checking for linux/joystick.h... no [ make ] make[2]: Entering directory /usr/local/src/plib-1.4.2/src/js' make[2]: Nothing to be done for ll'. make[2]: Leaving directory /usr/local/src/plib-1.4.2/src/js' So would might be worthwhile to allow building FlightGear _without_ joystick support in PLIB !?

Re: [Flightgear-devel] FlightGear without Joystick
Martin, Our assumption has been that plib supports joysticks on every platform, or hides the fact that it doesn't from the calling application. Apparently neither is the case, at least for solaris. :-( Question, if you hack up the FG code to yank out all joystick support, can you then get to the end and get a working FG build? In the past there have been strange missing symbols that couldn't be resolved which looked a lot like a compiler bug somewhere. Regards, Curt.

I'll try my best as time permits. I spent quite a couple of hours compiling and testing FlightGear, DRI, FreeTDS and other OpenSource stuff these days. I assume I somehow should get back to working a bit more for my income really soon ;-) Now, now ... don't be distracted by those hunger pains, and those angry people banging on your door wanting to evict you for not paying rent. :-) Curt. -- Curtis Olson IVLab / HumanFIRST Program FlightGear Project Twin Cities[EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Minnesota http://www.menet.umn.edu/~curt http://www.flightgear.org ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
