thanks for the heads up, upgrading to 2.1.0 noticed that the c++ example now requires -lpthread, once I compile my application it will need to know about pthread also.
is there a set of release notes that i need to be aware of, and also are there any patches against 2.1.0 that I may need, if so how do i find out what they are? will "make uninstall" take out all flavors of protocol buffer libraries (I used make install on top of a prior install and would like to remove the older version) thanks On Wed, Jul 29, 2009 at 2:22 PM, Kenton Varda <[email protected]> wrote: > On Wed, Jul 29, 2009 at 4:14 AM, Sushil Shelly <[email protected]> wrote: > >> I need to upgrade a linux installation of protocol buffers.
