[omniORB] Problem compiling omniEvent in RedHat 6.1 using gcc-2.91.66

[Paul Nader]

Hi Janne,

No you don't need to change just yet. You'll need to make several changes
in the
code (my fault for not having posted a patch earlier but the fisrt reports
of  build
problems on RH come in only a couple of weeks ago & I'm very close to
making a
new release for omniORB3.0.1 which includes these changes + others).

Here is what you need to do:

1) In oep_types.c the constructor for OEP_ecps
should read :

//------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Event Channel Persistent Data Representation
//------------------------------------------------------------------------


OEP_ecps::OEP_ecps() :
  key(NULL),
  pullRetryPeriod(PULL_RETRY_PERIOD),
  maxEventsPerConsumer(MAX_EVENTS_PER_CONSUMER)
{
  // Empty
}

The member initialisations for cadm and sadm were left behind by mistake in
the
release version and are no longer relevant or correct (they try to
inilialize a list
with NULL).

2)  Remove #include <omniEvents.h> from include/getopt.h.
     If you wish to compile for WIN32 with this last change you'll also
have
     to change all .cc files in the examples directory and replace:

#ifdef __WIN32__
#include <getopt.h>
#include <iostream>
#else

with

#ifdef __WIN32__
#include <getopt.h>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
#else

Can you let me know how you go?

Cheers, Paul.
