Please have a look at the German open Source Center BerliOS at www.berlios.de BerliOS will continue to support free hosting of cryptography projects even when US laws change and don't allow to host cryptography projects in the USA. Also look at sourcewell.berlios.de, the first Open Source announcement service that itself is implemented as Open Source project. ***************** Important news **************************** For the 'Slottable Source Plugin Module' SSPM Features read README.SSPM ***************** Please Test ********************************* NEW features of cdrtools-3.01a06: This is the first localization step for cdrtools. All programs now (hopefully) call gettext() for all strings that need localization. - The next step will include dgettext() calls for the libraries. - The following step will include the extracted strings - The last step will include German translations and install support for the resulting binary message object files. ----------> Please test and report compilation problems! <--------- ***** NOTE: As mentioned since 2004, frontends to cdrtools should ***** ***** call all programs from cdrtools in the "C" locale ***** ***** by e.g. calling: LC_ALL=C cdrecord .... ***** ***** unless these frontends support localized strings ***** ***** used by the cdrtools with NLS support. ***** This version compiles on Win-DOS using the Microsoft compiler cl.exe but warning: due to missing POSIX compliance with basic features (e.g. stat() does not return inode numbers), there are many problems with the resulting code and thus it is recommended to better use a POSIX layer on top of WIN-DOS. All: - A new rule RULES/profiled.lnk allows to call: smake COPTX=-pg LDOPTX=-pg LINKMODE=profiled to create binaries that use gprof. - The Makefile System is now able to switch gmake-3.82 into a more POSIX compliant mode to tell the shell to report problems back to gmake. - New autocof tests on whether printf supoorts %lld and %jd - Fixed the vc9-setup files to make VC9 work. - Newer Cygwin "tail" versions do no longer support UNIX syntax. change tail +2 to tail -n +2 in RULES/cc-mcs.rul to allow to use the Microsoft compiler again - A new environment variable MKLINKS_COPY allows to tell all MKLINS scripts to generate file copies rather than symlinks. Call: MKLINKS_COPY=true export MKLINKS_COPY to enable this feature - Run an additional test -h command in MKLNKS to verify whether mingw supports symlinks - MKLINKS now creates copies instead of symlink when we use MSC as MSC does not support to read symlinks files - Fixed a typo in include/schily/libport.h (group functions have been defined to return struct passwd* instead of struct group* - Fixed wrong bracketing for C++ in include/schily/stdlib.h - Fixed wrong bracketing for C++ in include/schily/utypes.h - Added a workaround for MSC to include/schily/utypes.h MSC believes that a 32 bit int and a 32 bit long are incompatible and cannot even be casted, so we need to make uint32_t a n unsigned long - Let include/schily/archdefs.h define the standard processor #defines when compiling with MSC. - New include file include/schily/windows.h works around the oddities from the MSC include file windows.h - include/schily/stdio.h now defines popen()/pclose() to _popen()/_pclose() if on WIN-DOS - include/schily/limits.h now defines PIPE_BUF - include/schily/utsname.h now defines struct utsname for our MSC uname() emulation. - The setup for the PATHs needed by Visual Studio 9 has been corrected. - autoconf has been modified to avoid optimizing away code that is intended for testing. This help to work against a problem with detecting mbrtowc() on MinGW - autoconf now tests for mbtowc() and wctomb() - RULES/i*86-mingw32_nt-gcc.rul now link against -lmingw32 instead of -lmgw32. - include/schily/stat.h now defines S_IREAD/S_IWRITE/S_IEXEC These macros are available on typical UNIX systems but not on Android. The definition comes from UNIX V7 and is not in POSIX. Needed by SCCS and the Bourne Shell - include/schily/wait.h now defines WIFCONTINUED() if needed - include/schily/wchar.h now defines mbtowc() to mbrtowc() if needed (e.g. on Android) - include/schily/ccomdefs.h now correctly knows about the GCC release that introduced __attribute__ (used). - Android is not POSIX (by not defining various functions as functions in libc as required by POSIX) because it tries to define many functions that are part of the standard as inline macros in include files only. This breaks autoconf, so we needed to rewrite some tests (e.g for getpagesize, tcgetpgrp, tcsetpgrp) - The Schily autoconf system has been enhanced to support cross compilation. Schily autoconf is based on GNU autoconf and GNU autoconf does not support cross compilation because it needs to run scripts on the target system for some of the tests. The "configure" script that is delivered with the Schily makefile system runs 718 tests and 68 of them need to be run on the target system. The Schily autoconf system now supports a method to run these 65 tests natively on a target system. You either need a machine with remote login features or you need an emulator with a method to copy files into the emulated system and to run binaries on the emulated system as e.g. the Android emulator. We currently deliver three scripts for "remote" execution of programs on the target system: runrmt_ssh runs the commands remove via ssh runrmt_rsh runs the commands remove via rsh runrmt_android runs the commands remove via the debug bridge If you need to remotely run programs on a system that is not supported by one of there three scripts, you need to modify one of them to match your needs. To enable Cross Compilation use the following environment variables: CONFIG_RMTCALL= Set up to point to a script that does the remote execution, e.g.: CONFIG_RMTCALL=`pwd`/conf/runrmt_ssh CONFIG_RMTHOST= Set up to point to your remote host, e.g.: CONFIG_RMTHOST=hostname or CONFIG_RMTHOST=user@hostname use a dummy if you like to use something like to the Android emulator. CONFIG_RMTDEBUG= Set to something non-null in order to let the remote execution script mark remote comands. This will result in configure messages like: checking bits in minor device number... REMOTE 8 Note that smake includes automake features that automatically retrieve system ID information. For this reason, you need to overwrite related macros from the command line if you like to do a cross compilation. Related make macros: K_ARCH= # (sun4v) Kernel ARCH filled from uname -m / arch -k M_ARCH= # (sun4) Machine filled from arch P_ARCH= # (sparc) CPU ARCH filled from uname -p / mach OSNAME= # sunos, linux, .... OSREL= # 5.11 OSVERSION= # snv_130 CCOM= # generic compiler name (e.g. "gcc") CC_COM= # compiler to call (name + basic args) ARCH= overwrites M_ARCH and P_ARCH It is usually suffucient to set ARCH and OSNAME. In order to use a cross compiler environment instead of a native compiler, set the make macro CC_COM to something different than "cc". If you are on Linux and like to compile for Android, do the following: 1) set up CC acording to the instructions from the cross compiler tool chain 2) set environment variables CONFIG_RMTCALL / CONFIG_RMTHOST, e.g.: setenv CONFIG_RMTCALL `pwd`/conf/runrmt_android setenv CONFIG_RMTHOST NONE 3) call smake: smake ARCH=armv5 OSNAME=linux CCOM=gcc "CC_COM=$CC" - Several programs no longer test for HAVE_DEV_* but for HAVE__DEV_* as we did switch from hand written tests for /dev/tty, /dev/null and similar to AC_CHECK_FILES(/dev/tty /dev/null /dev/zero) - The Makefile system now links dynamic libraries on Mac OS X against libgcc_s.1 instead of libgcc. Libschily: - New function permtostr() in libschily allows to convert a mode_t like stat.st_mode into a chmod compliant string like: u=rw,g=r,o=r that is accepted by libschily::getperm() to allow a conversion back to a mode_t variable. - libschily::rename() now uses mktemp() to temorarily save the rename target file. - comerr() now maps exit codes that would fold to '0' to EX_CLASH which is -64 - New functions zerobytes() and cmpmbytes() added to libschily. - New functions strstr() and wcsstr() added to libschily. - libschily/fexec.c moved the workaround against the Mac OS X linker for "environ" upwards to cover the new code also. - Fixed libschily/gettimeofday.c to compile with MSC - Fixed libschily/sleep.c to compile with MSC - Fixed libschily/usleep.c to be empty with MSC as sleep.c includes a working usleep() - libschily/gethostname.c enhanced to support Win-DOS with cl.exe - libschily/uname.c New function to support Win-DOS with cl.exe - libschily/dirent.c New functions: opendir()/closedir()/readdir() to support Win-DOS with cl.exe - libschily/kill.c New function to support Win-DOS with cl.exe - libschily/stdio/fgetline.c 64 bit speedup by calling fgets() in case that getc() is not a macro. - libschily/stdio/fgetstr.c 64 bit speedup by calling fgets() in case that getc() is not a macro. - libschily/chown.c new to support Win-DOS with cl.exe Libparanoia (Ported/enhanced by Jörg Schilling, originated by Monty xiphmont@mit.edu): Libedc (Optimized by Jörg Schilling, originated by Heiko Eißfeldt heiko@hexco.de): Libcdrdeflt: Libdeflt: Libfind: - libfind/find.c disables -exec in case there is no fork(). This is in order to support MINGW Libfile: Libhfs_iso: Libsiconv: Libscg: - libscg::scsi-aix.c was updated with some experimental code to support two new SCSI kernel interfaces on AIX. - Allow to disable the SCSI low level transport adoption layer from libscg by adding -DNO_SCSI_IMPL - libscg/scsihack.c now supports the MSC compiler - Several small changes to work around oddoties fount in MS include files - Trying to better support AIX again. Libscgcmd: Libmdigest: Rscsi: Cdrecord: - Several changes to support mingw and MSC Cdda2wav (Maintained/enhanced by Jörg Schilling, originated by Heiko Eißfeldt heiko@hexco.de): - Several changes to support mingw and MSC Readcd: - Better algorithm for -edc-corr Scgcheck: - Several changes to support mingw and MSC Scgskeleton: Btcflash: Mkisofs (Maintained/enhanced by Jörg Schilling since 1997, originated by Eric Youngdale): - The mkisofs diagnostic tools now support MSC that does not support POSIX terminal handling. HELIOS TODO: - Add the HELIOS UNICODE mapping code. This needs to be done at UCS-2 level for Joliet and UDF (instead of UTF-8) and only for Rock Ridge (in case of a UTF-8 based target locale) using UTF-8 based translations. - Make the Apple extensions work again with "mkisofs -find" TODO: - Support correct inode numbers for UDF hardlinks - Support sockets, pipes, char/blk-dev specials with UDF - read Joliet filenames with multi-session if no TRANS.TBL or RR is present. I am looking for a volunteer for this task! Note that this can never be 100% correct as there is no relation between the names on the master (UNIX) filesystem, the ISO-9660 names and the Joliet names. Only the Rock Ridge names are untranslated with respect to the original files on the master (UNIX) filesystem. - add libecc/edc for CDI and similar. CYGWIN NT-4.0 NOTES: To compile on Cygwin32, get Cygwin and install it. For more information read README.win32 The files are located on: ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/alpha ... NOTE: These tar archives are 100% POSIX compatible. GNU tar may get some minor trouble. If you like a 100% POSIX compliant tar, get star from ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/star/ WARNING: Do not use 'winzip' to extract the tar file! Winzip cannot extract symbolic links correctly. Joerg
