Greetings Everyone,<br><br>Well after posting the question of how to port Linux library code to OK Linux I had expected to receive a few answers or comments directing me gently but firmly to documentation on our wiki that would enlighten me. <br>
<br>While it's been only a few days, I haven't received a single chirp from anyone and that<br>unfortunately means one of two things: either A) no one has ever done it and no one knows how, or B) everyone is still so busy following their own projects that I am left to my own devices. <br>
<br>For the sake of everyone's pride I'll presume B).<br><br>Now then, given this is an OSS project it falls upon me to venture boldly into<br>the darkness of my own ignorance and painfully pick my way toward discovering the<br>
answers to my questions on my own. As I stumble around to everyone's amusement<br>perhaps I might succeed in making this journey less painful for those who might follow me.<br><br>So let's start at the beginning.<br>
<br>Since there is no documented OK Linux binary spec, I'll infer from the wiki info that<br>the GNU libraries are supported in some fashion since the wiki says that busybox runs with OK Linux. This fact alone is most encouraging since I can easily acquire the sources for other GNU/Linux libraries and I can use our estimable Scon build framework and try to compile them. Presuming that I don't trip up and break any of the traditional Linux ./configure and ./make install scripts I should be able to add them to Scon with very little trouble. <br>
<br>Starting with busybox I'll try to build it and then use that process to build the other Linux libraries with the ultimate goal of building the libstd++ library to run in OK Linux. <br><br>Everyone wish me luck.<br>

<pre><font size="4">Hello Everyone,<br><br>At the risk of spoiling what has been a somewhat uneventful week here on the OKL4<br>developer list, I would like to hear from the group if anyone (besides me) has wondered<br>the following:<br>
<br>How do I port Linux library code to OKL4?<br><br>Frankly, I'll admit to asking this question somewhat tounge in cheek, but certianly<br>I don't think I am the only one who wouldn't rather get a clear and hopefully detailed <br>
HOW-TO or FAQ on this topic posted here that explains the porting issues that <br>typically can arise moving Linux library code to OKL4. <br><br>If I've overlooked the details on doing this on the Wiki, my sincere apologies to all<br>
and I gladly welcome being sent the link with a stronly worded RTFC posted response.<br><br>However, if those details are not in an accessible HOW-TO, then I say shame on us all<br>for having not raised and settled such a basic development issue by now. <br>

</i><br>gcc comes with a libstdc++, alternatively The Apache Software<br>Foundation offers a libstdc++ (<a href="http://stdcxx.apache.org/" target="_blank">http://stdcxx.apache.org/</a>) but<br>I haven't actually tried this.<br>
<br>The first step would be to get a libstdc++ compiling and linking<br>
with the OKL4 libraries running on the OKL4 kernel.<br><br><br>><i> <br></i>><i> <br></i>></font><i><font size="4"> Thanks in advance. </font>^^<br></i><br> =gl</pre>
