[OpenIndiana-discuss] Compiling Mosh for OI 151

Tue May 1 16:27:13 UTC 2012

./src/statesync/completeterminal.cc and ./src/network/transportsender.cc

#ifndef INT_MAX
#define INT_MAX         2147483647      /* max value of an "int" */
#endif

./src/util/fatal_assert.h and ./src/util/dos_assert.h

#ifndef __STRING
#define __STRING(x) #x
#endif

./src/network/network.h and ./src/network/network.cc have a problem
with "s_addr" in the arguments to "try_bind"

    static bool try_bind( int socket, uint32_t my_s_addr, int port );

./src/frontend/stmclient.cc has "cfmakeraw" which has no direct
solaris equivalent ... I commented it out and hoped for the best.

I compiled with: ./configure --prefix=/opt/tools CFLAGS=-m64
CXXFLAGS=-m64 LDFLAGS="-R/usr/gnu/lib/amd64 -L/usr/gnu/lib/amd64"
LIBS="-lsocket -lnsl"

it's compiled the client, but not the server ... completely untested
... might look later.
