We've been talking about two completely separate issues: - Fast thread-local storage for libGL and GL drivers. - PIC for libGL and GL drivers. The only "changes" being talked about relate to the first of these issues, and have nothing to do with whether libGL is a true shared library or not. I'm interested to know if using __thread forces the use of -fPIC, because my first reading of Ulrich's document seemed to suggest this was the case. You say it's irrelevant, but I'd still like to know. If I am incorrect, then I have obviously misundersood some aspects of Ulrich's document and would like some clarification. -- Gareth _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas -- http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel
