Hi Gaby ( and anybody else who's interested ), I'm interested in changing the server socket in my web interface work to a C socket so as not to be tied to the GCL sockets which I currently use.
I've examined your package net.spad but notice you haven't yet implemented a server socket to listen for incoming connections. The functionality in net.spad traces back to src/lib/sockio-c.c which makes calls to the standard glib sockets. I notice there that there is a function that makes server sockets, namely 'open_server'. This function is set up to produce 2 servers, an internet domain and a local domain socket, however the internet domain code, which is what I want, is commented out. When I uncomment it and try to build OpenAxiom I get some minor errors about undeclared variables. I seek your advice on the best way to proceed. Firstly do you plan, in the near future, to add a server socket interface in net.spad. If not I'll work on doing so but do you think it best to use the code in sockio-c.c or, alternatively, use your Foreign Function Interface, http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=4AE60F68.5070309%40research.att.com&forum_name=open-axiom-help and bypass the code in sockio-c.c?
