-ACE Portability Macros
-
-----------------------------------------
-
-The following describes the meaning of the C++ compiler macros that
-can be set in the config*.h file. When you port ACE to a new platform
-and/or C++ compiler, make sure that you check to see which of these
-need to be defined. It's helpful to check the various config*.h files
-in this directory to see what's already been defined. If you need to
-add new macros, please send them to me and I'll add them to this file.
-
-Eventually, most of this information should be auto-discovered via GNU
-autoconf or Larry Wall's metaconfig...
-
-Macro Description

-ACE_WSOCK_VERSION A parameter list indicating the version of WinSock (e.g., "1, 1" is version 1.1).
-----------------------------------------
-
-The following is a partial list of where some of these macros are used
-in the code. This list was originally compiled by Jam Hamidi
-(jh1@core01.osi.com). It is now hopelessly out of date. I hope
-someone will come along and update it.
-
-ACE_HAS_ALLOCA:
----------------
-
- Used in:
- libsrc/IPC_SAP/SOCK_SAP/SOCK_Connect.C
- for allocation of iovp
- libsrc/IPC_SAP/SPIPE_SAP/SPIPE_Msg.C
- for alocation of iovp
-
- In solaris:
- alloca() allocates size bytes of space in the stack frame of
- the caller, and returns a pointer to the allocated block.
- This temporary space is automatically freed when the caller
- returns. Note: if the allocated block is beyond the current
- stack limit, the resulting behavior is undefined.
-
- In HPUX:
- no equivalent.
-
- Notes:
- in HPUX it has to do new and delete. Affects performance.
-
-
-ACE_HAS_AUTOMATIC_INIT_FINI:
-----------------------------
-
- Used in:
- libsrc/Service_Configurator/Service_Repository.i
- libsrc/Service_Configurator/Parse_Node.i
- include/Parse_Node.i
- include/Service_Repository.i
-
- In solaris:
- _init() initializes a loadable module. It is called before
- any other routine in a loadable module.
- _info() returns information about a loadable module.
- _fini() should return the return value from mod_remove(9F).
- This flag if set, doesn't do anything. If not set, forces
- _init() and _fini() to be executed as is:
- dlsym ((char *) handle, "_fini").
-
- In HPUX:
- don't set.
- Maybe have to look into shl_load( ), shl_definesym( ),
- shl_findsym( ), shl_gethandle( ), shl_getsymbols( ),
- shl_unload( ), shl_get( )(3X) - explicit load of shared libraries
- Means Service Configurator won't be available.
- TBA.
-
-
-ACE_HAS_CPLUSPLUS_HEADERS:
---------------------------
-
- Used In:
- ace/OS.h
-
- HPUX:
- set it.
-
- Notes:
- If this is not defined, libc.h and osfcn.h get included.
- Only needed for older compiler/OS platforms that don't
- provide standard C++ header files in /usr/include.
-
-ACE_HAS_HI_RES_TIMER:
----------------------
-
- Used In:
- libsrc/Misc/High_Res_Timer.h
- libsrc/Misc/High_Res_Timer.C
- include/High_Res_Timer.h
-
- In Solaris,
- C++ wrapper around gethrtime(), which returns a long long.
- gethrtime() returns the current high-resolution real time.
- Time is expressed as nanoseconds since some arbitrary time
- in the past; it is not correlated in any way to the time of
- day, and thus is not subject to resetting, drifting, etc.
-
- In HPUX
- look into: getclock(), reltimer(), getitimer()
- maybe even vtimes structure vm_utime, vm_stime ?
-
- Notes:
- TBA
-
-
-ACE_LACKS_T_ERRNO:
--------------------
-
- Used In:
- ace/OS.h
-
- HPUX:
- set it.
-
- Notes:
- if set, adds:
- extern int t_errno;
-
-
-ACE_HAS_POSIX_NONBLOCK:
------------------------
-
- Used in:
- ace/OS.h
-
- HPUX:
- set it.
-
- Notes:
- if defined, sets ACE_NONBLOCK and O_NONBLOCK
- O_NONBLOCK is used in libsrc/Misc/misc.C to do a
- fcntl (fd, F_SETFL, opt)
- ACE_NONBLOCK is used in libsrc/IPC_SAP/FIFO_SAP/FIFO_Recv.C in the
- disable member function and options passed to the open function
- in libsrc/IPC_SAP/FIFO_SAP/FIFO.C
-
-
-ACE_HAS_PROC_FS:
-----------------
-
- Used in:
- ace/OS.h
- libsrc/Misc/Profile_Timer.i
-
- Notes:
- if set, includes <sys/procfs.h>
- the PIOCUSAGE define is used in Profile_Timer.
-
- Solaris:
- procfs.h defines things for the prpsinfo structure (basically to
- do a "ps" from inside a program).
-
- HPUX:
- don't set: obviously a different mechanism.
- Look into /usr/include/sys/proc.h. The structure is proc. The
- pointer to the kernel's proc table may be obtained by
- extern struct proc *proc, *procNPROC;
- extern int nproc;
-
-
-ACE_HAS_PRUSAGE_T:
-------------------
-
- Used in:
- libsrc/Misc/Profile_Timer.h
- libsrc/Misc/Profile_Timer.C
-
- Notes:
- If defined, declares the Profile_Timer class that does start(),
- stop() and basically gets real_time, user_time, system_time for
- an interval.
- This stuff is highly non-portable.
-
- HPUX:
- don't set
-
-
-ACE_HAS_SEMUN:
---------------
-
- Used in:
- libsrc/Semaphores/Semaphore_Simple.h
-
- Notes:

- union semun {
- int val; /* value for SETVAL */
- struct semid_ds *buf; /* buffer for IPC_STAT & IPC_SET */
- ushort *array; /* array for GETALL & SETALL */
- };
-
- HPUX:
- don't set.
- in /usr/include/sem.h:
- /* The fourth argument to semctl() varies depending on the value of
- its first argument. If desired, "union semun" can be declared
- by the user, but this is not necessary since the individual
- member can just be passed as the argument. */
-
-
-ACE_HAS_SIG_ATOMIC_T:
----------------------
-
- Used in:
- ace/OS.h
-
- Notes:
- if not defined, does a:

- set it.
- in /usr/include/sys/signal.h:
- typedef unsigned int sig_atomic_t;
-
-
-ACE_HAS_SSIZE_T:
-----------------
-
- Used in:

- set it.
- in /usr/include/sys/types.h
-
-
-ACE_HAS_STRBUF_T:
------------------
-
- Used in:
- include/Str_Buf.h
-
- Notes:
- if not defined, declares the strbuf structure as:
- struct strbuf
- {
- int maxlen; /* no. of bytes in buffer */
- int len; /* no. of bytes returned */
- void *buf; /* pointer to data */
- };
-
- Solaris:
- defined in /usr/include/sys/stropts.h
- Sys V.4 Streams.
- uses strbuf as parameter to putmsg, putpmsg:
- int putmsg(int fildes, const struct strbuf *ctlptr,
- const struct strbuf *dataptr, int flags);
-
- HPUX:
- don't set.
- no SYS V.4 streams.
-
-

- rendezvous handles.
-
- HPUX:
- don't set.
- No sysV.4 streams.
-
-
-ACE_HAS_STRERROR:

---------------------------
-
- Used in:
- ace/OS.h
- libsrc/Reactor/Timer_Queue.i
-
- Notes:
- has to do with gettimeofday ().
-
- Solaris:
- gettimeofday (struct timeval *tp)
-
- HPUX:
- don't set.
- it has gettimeofday (struct timeval *tp, struct timezone *tzp);
- most calls do a:
- #if defined (ACE_HAS_SVR4_GETTIMEOFDAY)
- ::gettimeofday (&cur_time);
- #else
- ::gettimeofday (&cur_time, 0);
- #endif /* ACE_HAS_SVR4_GETTIMEOFDAY */
-
-

-------------
- Used in:
- ace/OS.h
-
- Notes:
- #if defined (ACE_HAS_POLL)
- #include /**/ <poll.h>
- #endif /* ACE_HAS_POLL */
-
-ACE_USE_POLL_IMPLEMENTATION:
-------------------
-
- Used in:
- ace/OS.h
-
- Notes:
- Use the poll() event demultiplexor rather than select().
-
- HPUX:
- set it.
-
-
-ACE_HAS_SVR4_SIGNAL_T:
-----------------------
-
- Used in:
- ace/OS.h
-
- Notes:
- #if defined (ACE_HAS_SVR4_SIGNAL_T)
- typedef void (*SignalHandler)(int);
- typedef void (*SignalHandlerV)(void);
- #elif defined (ACE_HAS_SIGNALHANDLERV_INT_ARG)

- TLI is the transport layer calls as in: t_bind(), t_open(), t_unbind(),
- t_optmgmt(), ... in SunOS and Solaris.
-
- HPUX:
- don't set.
- Not supported.
-
-
-ACE_HAS_SYS_FILIO_H:
---------------------
-
- Used in:
- ace/OS.h
-
- Notes:
- if not defined, includes <sys/filio.h>.
- didn't find any reference to anything in this file in the ACE code.
-
- Solaris:
- filio.h defines FIOCLEX, FIOASYNC, ... as _IO('f', 1), ..
- for FIOLFS,.. solaris has this to say:
- /*
- * ioctl's for Online: DiskSuite.
- * WARNING - the support for these ioctls may be withdrawn
- * in the future OS releases.
- */
-
- HPUX:
- <sys/ioctl.h> defines FIOASYNC and some other ones,
- <sgtty.h> defines some like FIOCLEX.
- some are never defined.
- use #ifdef HP-UX to modify sysincludes.h
-
-
-ACE_HAS_SYS_SIGLIST:
---------------------
-
- Used in:
- ace/OS.h
- libsrc/Log_Msg/Log_Msg.C
-
- Notes:
- if not defined, does a:
- extern const char **_sys_siglist;
-
- Solaris:
- This is an array holding signal descriptions.
-
- HPUX:
- don't set.
- Some additional work is required. In libsrc/Log_Msg/Log_Msg.C,
- sys_siglist is used regardless of ACE_HAS_SYS_SIGLIST.
- have to add #ifdefs to remove them.
-
-
-ACE_HAS_TEMPLATE_TYPEDEFS:
---------------------------
-
- Used in:
- libsrc/ASX/*.[Chi]
-
- Notes:
- cfront-based C++ compilers don't implement templates that support
- classes with typedefs of other types as formal arguments. This
- typedef uses the C++ preprocessor to work around this problem.
-
-ACE_HAS_THREADS:
-----------------
-
- Used in:
- libsrc/Service_Configurator/Service_Record.i
- libsrc/Service_Configurator/Svc_Conf.y.C
- libsrc/Service_Configurator/Thread_Spawn.i

- include/Queue.h
- include/STREAM.h
- include/Stream_Modules.h
- include/Service_Types.h
- include/Thread_Spawn.h
- include/Synch.h
- include/Thr_Manager.h
-
- Notes:
- We use Message_List.h even in a non-threaded environment.
- our XOMessageList.h does this by #ifdefs around Threaded things.
-
- HPUX:
- not until 10.0.
-
-
-ACE_HAS_THREAD_T:
------------------
-
- Used in:
- ace/OS.h
-
- Notes:

-
-
-ACE_HAS_TIMOD_H:
-----------------
-
- Used in:
- ace/OS.h
-
- Notes:
- if defined, include <sys/timod.h>
-
- Solaris:
- timod is a STREAMS module for use with the Transport Inter-
- face (TI) functions of the Network Services library. The
- timod module converts a set of ioctl(2) calls into STREAMS
- messages that may be consumed by a transport protocol pro-
- vider that supports the Transport Interface. This allows a
- user to initiate certain TI functions as atomic operations.
-
- HPUX:

-
-
-ACE_HAS_TIUSER_H:
------------------
-
- Used in:

-----------------------------
-
- Used in:
- libsrc/Reactor/Reactor.i
- include/Event_Handler.h
- ace/OS.h
- include/Reactor.h
-
- Notes:
- in the reactor, use poll instead of select. In general,
- good thing to have set.
