Hello=20
assar
,


Thanks for coming back to me with some comments about arla. I try to =
answer your questions:

Well, as a matter of fact, I *do* have a working X11 (this is available as =
shareware), but my X11 does not have IceConnectionNumber() and other =
symbols, so the linking fails. So this is a more local thing, nothing to =
include in a general config file.

Well, I do have one, but only under POSIX. =46rom the man page:


GETCWD(3P)          UNIX Programmer's Manual           GETCWD(3P)


NAME

     getcwd - (POSIX only) get current working directory pathname


SYNOPSIS

     char *getcwd(char *buf, size_t size);


> > #define HAVE_KRB_PRINCIPAL 1

>=20

> below it manages to find the typedef?

>=20

Hmm, I don't remember. And I already removed the sources....



> > #define HAVE_SSIZE_T 1

>=20

> And configure doesn't find ssize_t.  Do you have such a type?

>=20

Well, I do have it, but only in BSD:


        typedef int     ssize_t;

./bsd/sys/types.h


so it is not available with the -posix flag.

Great!


I am willing to give the kernel stuff a try, but I will start from your =
newest, fresh sources (including the above changes). Did you put them up =
for downloading already? Where?


Looking forward to your reply,


Helmut
