Functions marked with OVS_CONSTRUCTOR are called unconditionally before main.
Signed-off-by: Helmut Schaa <helmut.sc...@googlemail.com> --- This works with gcc (tested), should work with clang (untested) but does not work with MSVS. Could anyone using MSVC try if the solution described at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1113409/attribute-constructor-equivalent-in-vc is suitable? Is MSVC even supported in OVS?
