Maybe it would be overkill, but gnulib is designed for such portability issues, maybe grass could use that more generally? http://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib/ I checked that there is some xdr support (from glibc): http://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib/manual/html_node/Glibc-rpc_002fxdr_002eh.html#Glibc-rpc_002fxdr_002eh There is an entry cost, though, and it integrates better when automake is used too. Also the fact that grass requires an old autoconf may be troublesome. -- Pat _______________________________________________ grass-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-dev
