This is BETA 2 of libnix and its considered final. Changes compared with
|
||
|
|
the previous BETA are completed append mode (now works for fdopen()),
|
||
|
|
stderr behavoir according to the standard (always unbuffered; previosly
|
||
|
|
it had the normal fopen() mode) since write-only streams are now optimized
|
||
|
|
(as in *BSD ;-). The internal socket i/o interface was changed for better
|
||
|
|
system compatibility (used a packet in private memory, now its DOS alloced)
|
||
|
|
The only change that I consider is a makefile change: changing the
|
||
|
|
optimization level from -O3 to -O2 or -Os.

This libnix version is BETA!!! The final version will certainly contain
|
||
|
|
changes compared to this snapshot.
|
||
|
|
Its intended for those who are interested and are able to recompile the
|
||
|
|
libraries. This packaged can be compiled under a cross compiler environment.
|
||
|
|
The configure script MUST be invoked through an absolute pathname! If you
|
||
|
|
configure it with a relative pathname you have to modify VPATH and srcdir
|
||
|
|
in startup/Makefile (remove the first ../).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
libnix 2.0 finally offers support for networking. The network support is
|
||
|
|
in a new link library called libsocket.a. This code is based on work by
|
||
|
|
Jeff Sheperd. For a more changes consult sources/history. The list is
|
||
|
|
probably no complete.
