From 0435757bdcab5bf0c2623d6d5c8e639f70b0a16a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ken Raeburn Date: Thu, 5 Sep 2002 06:37:57 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] updates: ANSI C; autoconf; TCP; --with-system-{et,ss} git-svn-id: svn://anonsvn.mit.edu/krb5/trunk@14831 dc483132-0cff-0310-8789-dd5450dbe970 --- README | 26 +++++++++++++++++++++++--- 1 file changed, 23 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/README b/README index 8bb95a605..a0071e273 100644 --- a/README +++ b/README @@ -77,13 +77,33 @@ Notes, Major Changes, and Known Bugs for 1.3 installed com_err library with their own error tables. * The header files we install now assume ANSI/ISO C ('89, not '99). - If you're using a pre-ANSI system, like SunOS 4, try using gcc. In - fact, SunOS 4 with gcc is what we use at MIT as the oldest pre-POSIX - system we test against, and even that testing is fairly minimal. + We have stopped testing on SunOS 4, even with gcc. Some of our code + now has C89-based assumptions, like free(NULL) being well defined, + that will probably frustrate any attempts to run this code under SunOS + 4 or other pre-C89 systems. * Some new code, bug fixes, and cleanup for IPv6 support. [[TODO: Insert list of (non-)supporting programs and libraries here.]] +* We have upgraded to autoconf 2.52 (or later), and the syntax for + specifying certain configuration options have changed. For example, + autoconf 2.52 configure scripts let you specify command-line options + like "configure CC=/some/path/foo-cc", so we have removed some of + our old options like --with-cc in favor of this approach. + +* The client libraries can now use TCP to connect to the KDC. This + may be necessary when talking to Microsoft KDCs (domain controllers), + if they issue you tickets with lots of PAC data. + +* If you have versions of the com_err or ss packages installed + locally, you can use the --with-system-et and --with-system-ss + configure options to use them rather than using the versions + supplied here. Note that the interfaces are assumed to be similar + to those we supply; in particular, some older, divergent versions of + the com_err library may not work with the krb5 sources. The + CPPFLAGS, LDFLAGS, and SS_LIB variables can be used to help the + compiler and linker find the installed packages. + Notes, Major Changes, and Known Bugs for 1.2, delete before shipping 1.3 ------------------------------------ -- 2.26.2
