Porting to QNX 6.3.0

2005-01-07 Thread Jim Douglas
Hi, I gather from the archives (and other sources) that this feat of daring has been attempted before, but I cannot ascertain whether anyone has succeeded. I perceive that there is now a renewed impetus to make net-snmp available for QNX as with the latest release of OS (6.3.0) QSSL decided to pu

non-caching MfD framework

2005-01-07 Thread Dave Shield
Robert, I noticed a log message on the CVS list yesterday, about documenting how to implement a non-caching version of a container-based MfD module. (I was a bit surprised to see that you'd applied this to the 5-2-patches line as well, since I thought that was currently in pre-release freeze
