That's completely beyond the scope of my tiny brain :-) Anybody got any
ideas? I would assume its some sort of build flag stuff or something like
that? Or what libraries are being brought in?

Subject: xerces linking side effect ...
I'm having some real trouble with mixing signals and xerces.
I've attached a sample program (small) that sets up a signal handler to
printout a message when a signal is caught. I get different results
depending on whether or not I link with the xerces library or not
(!NOTE! this sample code does nothign with xerces other than link to
it!)
When I run the test program which simply sets up a handler for all
signals between 0 and SIGRTMAX (0 to 64 or so) I then send corresponding
kill signals to the program and watch them get caught by the handler and
thus printed out.
When I send kill -32 <pid> for some reason the handler doesn't get
called.
Same with single 33, and 34 ... but ALL of the rest of them get printed
out.
Why am I asking this to a xerces person? well this behavior ONLY happens
when I link with the xerces library. MOST ODD!
My compile line is as follows:
gcc test.c -L/xerces/lib -lxerces-c1_1
I'm using xerces 1_1_0 for linux.
Please note this is a sample of the problem, my larger program uses
xerces (obviously) but I was just trying to narrow the problem down, and
that's how I ended up isolating the xerces lib ... unless I'm missing
something here. I'd love to see if someone can duplicate it.
Thanks for any help in advance,
