Hi,
I am trying to port a project which was implemented using qpid-proton-cpp from a fairly recent Fedora linux kernel to an older RHEL linux 2.6. The older kernel is required because the end user unfortunately only runs the older linux kernel, and due to company policy they cannot upgrade in the near future. Unfortunately when we try to build on linux kernel 2.6 there are dependency issues which relate to the older kernel not including support for timerfd which is used in qpid-proton-proactor. We did also encounter some other build issues with some of the cpp templates in proton-cpp due to bugs in the older GNU compiler version which we fixed using workarounds, but getting the proactor to work on the older kernel looks like it will be less than trivial without timerfd. I do see what appears to be an older implementation for IO etc named reactor as opposed to proactor in the proton c implementations, but unfortunately the cpp container implementation which we are using does not seem to have an implementation using reactor instead of proactor? Is there any way around this - is it possible to use container without having timerfd support in the kernel? Performance isn't important for us in this so a simple socket read loop would be fine - just I am not sure how to shoehorn that into what we have already implemented using container...?
