Ah, now I need to figure out how to pickup the new includes.
BTW, personally I wouldn't take my word regarding the 3.4 errors -- I was simply
trying an alternative version and it is likely that the way ours is configured is the
problem.
Thanks! |

Ok, now I see the issue - the tar extract created the mxml directory in the root (not
under the created directory elog-2.5.9). Is there a reason why these includes are not
placed in the src dir like the regex.h/.c include? |

Ack, ok, I moved the includes into src and tried re-compiling -- and received several
"undefined symbol" errors from the linker. Clearly the libraries cannot be moved into src? |

Yes. I use these files in several other projects as well, and want to maintain only a
single copy. So I have
elogd-x.x.x/
elogd-x.x.x/src/
....
mxml/
mxml/strlcpy.h
mxml/strlcpy.c
mxml/mxml.c
mxml/mxml.c
...
other-project-x.x.x/
other-project-x.x.x/
So both elogd and "other-project" can use strlcpy.c and mxml.c. If I would copy it to
elogd-x.x.x/src and fix a bug there, "other-project" would use a separate copy and not
profit from the bug fix. So I would have to mainain verious copies of the same file, which
make things complicated. I compile everything also under windows, so I cannot use soft
links. If there is a better way of how to do it, please let me know. |

No undefined functions here. I guess you have an old Makefile? Just use the complete tar

Ok, now I have it. Old Makefile because I had to perform some deletions to make "make" work
right under Solaris. Basically, I took out the ifdef structures - "make" was blowing up on
these. Everything now compiles perfectly -- don't change anything. Thanks for that last pointer.

conditional attributes, posted by W.Koster on Thu Apr 9 10:39:34 2009
|
I'm (ab)using elog as a database and would like to use conditional attributes, like:
Attributes = PC Name, Operating System, Version, Distribution
Options Operating System = Linux{1}, Windows{2}
{1} Show Attributes Edit = Operating System, Distribution, PC Name
{2} Show Attributes Edit = Operating System, PC Name, Version
Problem is that there are several conditions and the list of attributes is rather long. Also, since it's a
rather dynamic environment I have to make new attributes all the time, and adding them to all "show attributes"
lists is not only tedious, but bound to cause errors as well.
So...
I was thinking, would it be an idea to make the list of attributes to be shown or hidden on a per attribute base.
Like:
Attributes = PC Name, Operating System, Version, Distribution
# hide specific attributes
Hide attributes = Distribution, PC Name
# or configure which fields should be shown allways
Show Attributes = Operating System, Version
# add attributes based on OS
Options Operating System = Linux{1}, Windows{2}
{1} Show Attribute Edit = Distribution
{2} Show Attribute Edit = PC Name
(just thinking out loud here). |

Sure such a think can be implemented, but I have no time right now to do so. I will put it on the wish list. |
