I'm using old OE so I will go ahead and top post this. I don't know if the simh
group has rules against top posting or not. I am learning the pcap library so
yes I always have the development libraries there. Not just runtime in my linux
system.
My goal is a little hazy right now. I would like to learn more about
the simh simulator API if it's called that. But no real goal there yet. As too
simulating something. I would like to compile, like the old version allowed
-DUSE_NETWORK=0 I think was the define at compile time. I guess I liked the
choice. I never really go online with vax or pdp11 much anyway. HTH

Hi Bill,
Anything is possible, however, what is the real goal behind your question?
If your build environment doesn't have the necessary components to support
network activities, then you can't build binaries with network support. The
makefile looks around for components which are available on the build system
and the binaries are built which will work on that system. Even if libpcap is
available on the build system, the binaries dynamically load libpcap at runtime
so binaries built on a system with the necessary pieces will actually run on a
different host of the same platform type and provide libpcap networking support
if the executing system has libpcap available and not if it isn't available.
Please explain what you are trying to achieve.
Thanks.
- Mark

Is it possible anymore to compile the emulators without networking
support naymore. Or is that choice gone. I noticed at compile time there's a
lot of dynamic libraries here being linked in at compile time.
