Obviously, this only poses a problem if the ABI changes in incompatible ways, like the type signature of a function. > You are absolutely right, I did not completely think this through and > screwed up in this regard.

Either we rename it, or we promise to never break ABI compatibility with json-c. The former is more work initially, but gives you more freedom going onwards. The latter is possible too, see libjpeg (from IJG) and libjpeg-turbo. But it needs very careful maintenance of the library. -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth? _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ What's up with rsyslog?
