[streaming] Re: vls-0.5.3 on solaris9 with gcc3.3

Wed Oct 1 10:11:55 CEST 2003

Thanks for the tips...  I just want a better understanding of what files I need to change.  I did 
mess around with the config script and the library calls extensively.  It calls the right library, but 
the tests for the nanosleep() function and the way it is used in tsstreamer.cpp, seem to be the 
problem.  In solaris 9, nanosleep is defined in two places as 

int nanosleep(const struct timespec *, struct timespec *);

but in vls, it is defined and tested as if it was 

int nanosleep(struct timespec *, struct timespec *);

I just want to know what significance this has and what part of the code I need to tweak.  I am 
not expecting anyone else to do this, as I enjoy troubleshooting and compiling vls.  It is a great 
software and I just want to be able to run it in solaris 9!  If anyone if familiar with the use of 
nanosleep, it would be great to lead me the right direction.
