OK, this is good news. I put a lot of time in patching up ACE to work on FreeBSD, and some of my work also involved submitting patches to FreeBSD. I am glad that > And it all seems to build fine. Now, earlier in this e-mail thread someone mentioned that certain ACE tests were failing. Do these tests fail now with ACE 5.3.1? FreeBSD lacks POSIX real-time signals, which was very troublesome when I was trying to get the ACE Proactor to work properly, because the Proactor uses POSIX AIO + POSIX RT signals. I would really like to see POSIX RT signals on FreeBSD. However, since this is a threads mailing list, I assume you are more interested in the ACE threads tests passing with KSE. Are there any problems there? I am also very interested in how KSE thread priorities work, because thread priorities are used in the TAO Real-time CORBA ORB, which is built on top of ACE. -- Craig Rodrigues http://home.attbi.com/~rodrigc rodrigc@attbi.com
