It's been a while

I know it's been a while since I've updated (or really done anything for that matter), but the school year started so it's been a bit hectic.

Good news though is that I'm no longer building code in a sandbox with ksh for loops, packing it up as libc_i18n, and putting it in place of the old code; Now I've got my code shoved inside an O/N fork, and ON attempts to build it. Emancipation has a new repo at hg.opensolaris.org/hg/emancipation/emancipation-gate if anyone wants to check it out. One caveat though is that this is a full ON tree, so it'll be quite large.

It's not building at the moment, and I'm not sure why, but since I just coaxed make(1) in to even trying last night at about 2am, I'll figgure it out and fix it. It's probably just something stupid anyways.

And, after a week off

I took the last week off because I'm no longer time constrained & it's nice to take a break every once in a while.

last night, I removed a chunk of the GCC-isms that were preventing my code from compiling with studio and removed them ( __inline and __restrict were the main culprits ), so now it ought to work with both compilers, given gcc is passed the correct flags to comply with the standards in question. The code's in the Mercurial repo.

I was going to try to get it to link in this week, but it occured to me that it'd probably be a much better plan to shove it in an ON branch, so I think I'm going to play with makefiles for a while & remove the stupid compile step i've got going on right now.

cheers
