Hi *, I haven't seen any response from this list to my e-mail below and thus I wonder whether it has been received at all (Waldo responded to it, but he was in Cc: of my original e-mail and thus he replied directly rather than via the list).
In particular, I wonder whether my contribution is considered for merging into Synapse SVN repository, or whether you see some issues with that. Sorry if it's just due to lack of time - I don't want to push it in any way so just tell me to wait more. Also, if my contribution is supposed to be provided through some other channel, just let me know too. Thanks Tomas ------- Forwarded message follows ------- From: Tomas Hajny <xhaj...@hajny.biz> To: Ararat Synapse <synalist-public@lists.sourceforge.net> Subject: OS/2 support for Synapse working (Was: Re: SSLConnect returning -1 but ErrGetError giving 0) Copies to: wkitt...@windstream.net Send reply to: xhaj...@hajny.biz Date sent: Mon, 31 Dec 2012 02:36:33 +0100 Hi *, Thanks again to Ludo who helped me to address the previously discussed issue with SSL connections. Attached you'll find the result - my modifications (on top of Synapse trunk) allow compiling Synapse (or at least major parts ;-) ) for OS/2 and use the compiled units for both plain and SSL connections (using OpenSSL libraries compiled with EMX - in that case emx.dll is needed too, but only if OpenSSL support is included/compiled in the resulting binary). As of now, it requires unit Sockets (OS/2 implementation) from FPC trunk, but I'll probably merge the changes to the FPC fixes branch too. In order to deal with the timezone offset (and DST), I've implemented parsing of the TZ environment variable and its interpretation with regard to current date (unit TZUtil - currently included too) because OS/2 provides no direct API for retrieving current DST status. I've tried to support multiple standards existing for this variable. This unit should be completely platform independent and thus potentially usable for other platforms which may use / need this environment variable (this applies at least to DOS / GO32v2). I'll discuss addition of this unit or its content to FPC RTL (either just for OS/2 or for multiple platforms; possibly merged into SysUtils or elsewhere) with the FPC core team; depending on the result, tzutil.pas may not be necessary as part of Synapse in the future, but it should be safe to include it for now at least. One thing which I have _not_ tested (since I don't know how) is the iconv support. It compiles correctly and proper name for the iconv library is provided, but that's it for the moment. One final note (probably mainly for Lukas) - as mentioned previously, I've used the Winsock support (sswin32.inc) as basis for the OS/2 support. While doing the modifications, I've tried to keep it as close to the original as possible. I mention this because you could decide to change the reference to ssos2ws1.inc in synsock.pas to sswin32.inc and copy my ssos2ws1.inc over sswin32.inc instead of adding it as a new include file and it should work perfectly for both OS/2 and Windows platforms. This may be a better option for keeping the platform include files in sync.
