Hear, hear! :) Hi there, I gave a look at autotools stuff (autoconf, autoheader, autoscan, automake ...) and I must confess that now life is sooo much *easier* than a couple of years ago. First (thanks to my friend Marco's work) I could port configure scripts to a clearer situation: I remember when I first introduced it to ht://Check it was more a cut+paste operation, sniffing code from basically Loic's work on ht://Dig. Now, especially with autoscan and autoheader, the situation is much better. Having said this, I have a few proposals to do: during this week-end I will bring my laptop to my countryhouse (where I don't have the Internet so I may not answer you) and try and hack the code in order to include at least these 2 things: - check for C++ standard library - check for C++ namespaces Essentially these two m4 macros (taken from the configure archive) will define 2 preprocessor variables in config.h (we must get rid of acconfig.h according to new autoconf's directives because it is deprecated) called HAVE_STD and HAVE_NAMESPACES and I'll modify the code whenever iostream.h (and similar like 'iomanip', etc.) is called. Sounds good? However, I really hope I can contribute this patch early next week.

Re: [htdig-dev] 3.2.0b5 Next progress check :)
Hi friends!
But IMHO, we should be pushing people towards newer compilers with
newer releases. It's pretty clear that new GCC releases will stop
compiling non-ISO C++, so we'll either need to do a lot of conditional
compilation or clean up the code and get people to use newer compilers.
I agree with Geoff. Also, if you could be interested, thanks to my
friend Marco, ht://Check since last sunday has got automatic checks for
C++ standard library and conditional compilation which for fstream,
iomanip, etc. and namespaces.
If you are interested in this, I volounteer myself to port the code to
this, maybe asking my friend Marco ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) to join me.
I don't know though if at this time it is better to wait for 3.2.0b5 to
be out.
Let me know
Ciao
-Gabriele

Re: [htdig-dev] 3.2.0b5 Next progress check :)
I don't think Geoff was saying we *shouldn't* use 2.7. It's just that we haven't actually *tested* it under 2.7. If (when :) you can confirm that it still works under 2.8, Right. Sorry for the confusion. If it works under gcc-2.7, so much the better! But IMHO, we should be pushing people towards newer compilers with newer releases.

Greetings Jesse, I don't think Geoff was saying we *shouldn't* use 2.7. It's just that we haven't actually *tested* it under 2.7. If (when :) you can confirm that it still works under 2.8, that's great!

Thanks for the tip about the address -- I was forgetting that these pages are intended for the BBB (Big Bad WeB). We don't claim that we compile under gcc-2.7. The old systems are commented out. (Just my fear of deleting...)

[htdig-dev] 3.2.0b5 Next progress check :)
Greetings all, Are people happy with the tentative timetable I mailed a week ago? If so, the Unix code should be essentially complete now, and 3.2.0b5 will be released in one week's time. Neal and Jess, do you still plan to make any changes? Geoff, could you please post a to-do list for the release docs? All I can think of is - Replace all references to 3.2.0b4 as current with 3.2.0b5 (Can this be automated at all?) - Remove checklist and solved issues from STATUS - Update copyright (if possible -- I don't see this as critical...) Please let me know what I can do to help the release. Thanks, Lachlan On Sun, 8 Jun 2003 15:20, Lachlan Andrew wrote: Thank you to everybody for your work towards getting 3.2.0b5 out.

I'll do some more with memory-leak fixes and the Win32 port. I'm in the process of comparing my tree with the CVS tree and moving changes over to CVS. I plan to commit code frequently this week and get my tree synched. I will also take care of updating the GPL notifications to LGPL. Thanks!
