Thread: QNX4
The current sources compile fine under QNX 4. Unfortunately regress.sh is broken under QNX 4 since the variable hostname is used instead of portname. (May be, the win port too.) Furthermore the combination of exec and read in regress.sh does not work on QNX 4 for unknown reasons. A patch for FAQ_QNX4, regress.sh and resultmap and 3 new expected files are attached. I hope, RESULTMAP=`cat resultmap` will work on the other platforms. Note on the following line of the HISTORY file: "Update for QNX (Kardos, Dr. Andrea)" The QNX 4 port is completely new in 7.0. My first name is Andreas (male), not Andrea (female). Furthermore this port is not mentioned yet in the current documentation. Andreas Kardos

I'm not sure why the current HISTORY file has been modified directly,
since it is generated from SGML sources for every full release. Bruce?

It is mentioned in ports.sgml, and should show up on the daily html
snapshots. Where else do you find mention of ports? We'll make sure it
is added in...

Bruce? Easier to do SGML all at once when it is finalized. -- Bruce Momjian | http://www.op.net/~candle pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 853-3000 + If your life is a hard drive, | 830 Blythe Avenue + Christ can be your backup. | Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania 19026

Since the QNX4 port is fully integreted in 7.0 it does not require a patch any more. Andreas

I just recalled this posting from a while ago. Dr. Kardos, do the most
recent changes to config.guess finish fixing the problems, or did it
introduce a few more things which need to be fixed up?
I'll count QNX as supported unless you think I shouldn't.

The QNX4 port is OK now. But there are still some minor problems which I have already reported: 1) > I had now problems to compile the plperl stuff. These problems are new. > They occur because my precompiled perl package has been made with cc and > plperl can be compiled with gcc only on QNX (due to long long int). The CC, > CFLAGS and so on are got from the prebuilt perl stuff. gcc doesn't work with > the cc options.

This doesn't matter on QNX4 since shared libraries are not supported. 2) > rules failes now too. This is new. > ERROR: Bad money external representation I believe I have seen this already in a report from another platform. So it might be not QNX specific. IMHO you can count QNX as supported. A patch for an updated FAQ_QNX4 is attached.
