[omniORB-dev] [WinCE Port] First Linking problems :)

[Xavier Outhier]

Hi all,

After trying to get native win32 thread version running,
I switch for pthread_nt configuration as the native leads
to too complicated errors for me.

In <Top>/mk/win32.mk I commented out
 # Use native win32 threads
 ThreadSystem = NT
and uncommeted out 
# Use pthread_nt, comment out ThreadSystem line above and uncomment the
# following 2 lines.
#ThreadSystem = NTPosix
#OMNITHREAD_CPPFLAGS= -D__POSIX_NT__

So instead of compiling omniORB-4.0.1/src/lib/omnithread/nt.cc
I compile omniORB-4.0.1/src/lib/omnithread/posix.cc.

I was able to fix all the compile error/change but I got a link error:

and so on with all the pthread functions.

Which library should I link with? Where to do such change?

Is it possible to use pthreads for winCE (http://public.planetmirror.com/pub/sourceware/pthreads-win32/dll-latest) ?
What should I change in the sources or in makefile?
Can I only link to the lib? Where do I add this information to link to
the lib file?

Best regards,

Xavier.
