9: libthread on Mac OS X (response to 1)
Posted by Malte Sussdorff on 10/01/06 12:17 PM
How do I include the .dylib file into OpenACS on "os x" in the param section. Is there a way to build it in ".so" style?

Hi Malte,

I am sure, you know the Mac OS X specific definition:

  ns_section "ns/server/${server}/modules"
    ...
    ns_param libthread  ${homedir}/lib/libthread2.6.1.dylib
    ...
A OS independent definition would be
  ns_section "ns/server/${server}/modules"
    ...
    ns_param libthread  ${homedir}/lib/libthread2.6.1[info sharedlibextension]
    ...
Does this answer your question?

Yes, this answers the question and I swear, I tried it before and it did not work. But apparently I made a mistake. Is there a reason not to use 2.6.4 in libthread?

I tend to be conservative on the tricky parts of the system. However, have upgraded just now to use 2.6.4 and it is apparently ok.

Saw your patch:
http://cvs.openacs.org/cvs/openacs-4/packages/acs-content-repository/tcl/revision-procs.tcl?r1=1.22&r2=1.23&sortby=date

i have just now updated bgdelivery-procs in cvs head to check for the aolserver patch to avoid surprises with that patch.

Hello Gustaf,

I have some problems with bgdelivery, I get this error in my log:

Notice: Loading xotcl-core/tcl/bgdelivery-procs.tcl
Notice: AOLserver is not patched for bgdelivery, NOT loading bgdelivery

but I don't know which patches should I applied to AOLserver in order to bgdelivery to load.

I'm sorry, I know this is a dummy question, but I have to apply the patch before install right? Once the Makefile is generated, is there a way to fix it?

the patch is does not change the makefile. patch the aolserver and type "make" and "make install" as usual. In case of doubts, have a look at Malte's build file, it contains the patch.
