Feeble attempt at dependency database, beta 1
by Olegil on tour 11 Nov '05

11 Nov '05

I've been dilly-dallying in emacs today, browse around the first half of a really simple dependency database here: http://oeh.network-electronics.com/~olegil/dependencies/index.php Adding/changing people, projects and dependencies work Deleting isn't implemented on anything yet. Adding roles (connecting people to projects), listing/searching the database is still on the todo, and I'll be adding a simple "latest additions" to the front page. It's supposed to be using CSS for all pages, the menu is going to be sitting on the left if you have CSS, top if you don't. I absolutely will not design without CSS any more ;-) The CSS that actually places the menu and body divs next to each other is missing, though. I have to look it up :-P To log in, use the username aooo. The password is tricky. (let's see who figures THAT one out :-P ) -- We'll pedal off that bridge when we get there.

Ok, can everyone give me some feedback on what they're working atm? I noticed* *Rene W. Olsen is working on SANE, did you manage to resolve those issue's you mentioned earlier? Did you ever get an awnser about that parrallel device? What's the status of libusb? Is Aspell fully debugged?

IEEE1284 - Parallel
by Rene W. Olsen 08 Sep '05

Hello, Is there any library for IEEE1284 support (parallel device) for OS4? SANE uses it for Parallel scanners, if no one planning it I maybe chould be tempted to do a wrapper for OS4. Kind regards Rene W. Olsen

PThread
by Rene W. Olsen 06 Sep '05

Hello, I have been doing some coding on SANE now that my Python project was mindless... I have almost got all the MainFunction compiled there is just two files that dont work... the first is a file with SCSI support commands in it, I have just skip it as I have no SCSI to test it with. The second is Thread support and a more serious problem. They have been so nice to make two versions one with fork() and one with PThread.. When I try to compile the file it complains about some sigaction structure/function. (see below) static void restore_sigpipe( void ) { struct sigaction act; if( sigaction( SIGPIPE, NULL, &act ) == 0 ) { if( act.sa_handler == SIG_IGN ) { sigemptyset( &act.sa_mask ); act.sa_flags = 0; act.sa_handler = SIG_DFL; DBG( 2, "restoring SIGPIPE to SIG_DFL\n" ); sigaction( SIGPIPE, &act, NULL ); } } } In this code its first definded sigaction as a structure and then call it as a function ?! Its not the only place where they do that trick. This is what the compiler writes to me 2.Work:CVS-Home/sane-backends> make gcc -Wall -mcrt=clib2 -Os -Iwork:cvs-home/sane-backends/include -c -o sanei/sanei_thread.o sanei/sanei_thread.c sanei/sanei_thread.c: In function `restore_sigpipe': sanei/sanei_thread.c:310: error: storage size of 'act' isn't known sanei/sanei_thread.c:312: warning: implicit declaration of function `sigaction' sanei/sanei_thread.c:312: error: `SIGPIPE' undeclared (first use in this function) sanei/sanei_thread.c:312: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once sanei/sanei_thread.c:312: error: for each function it appears in.) sanei/sanei_thread.c:310: warning: unused variable `act' sanei/sanei_thread.c: In function `sanei_thread_begin': sanei/sanei_thread.c:356: error: storage size of 'act' isn't known sanei/sanei_thread.c:360: error: `SIGPIPE' undeclared (first use in this function) sanei/sanei_thread.c:356: warning: unused variable `act' sanei/sanei_thread.c: In function `sanei_thread_sendsig': sanei/sanei_thread.c:411: warning: implicit declaration of function `pthread_kill' make: *** [sanei/sanei_thread.o] Error 1 Any vice person that know what to do? Ohh ya almost forgot they seam to use pthread_kill() is there an easy way to emulate that function? Kind regards Rene W. Olsen

Do we need Python? I'm looking at the MorphOS source, and I think I can port it. Kind regards Rene W. Olsen
