Hi !

I use OpdenDX version 4.1.1 (downloaded from opendx.org), on a SGI IRIX 6.5
Workstation.

I want to write a mudule to export polygon-data from dx to other applications.
Starting with the examples included (like hello.c, hello_outbord.c, etc.) I
found out that the libraries do not export any symbols; only compiling the
outboard version worked at all.
But when I try to execute hello_outboard, OpenDX crashes with the eroor-message
"pcreateve : Operation not permitted" and the connection to the server is lost.

When I went through the mailinglist-archives, I found out that the missing
symbols problem is known, but I didn't find any fix for this.

Someone suggested to recompile. I tried this with the provided sources from
OpenDX.org (Version 4.1.0), but I was not able to finish the compile. When doing
'make install' during the building of the library dxcallm.a there were errors
about missing files (exdistconnect.o).

Is there anyone who succesfully compiled dx on an SGI with this missing-symbols
problem solved?
And, of course, is there anyone who wrote a loadable (or outboard) mudule for
use on a SGI IRIX system?

Thank you for your help!
