[JDEV] Re: Building jabberd on hp-ux - FIX

[Brennan, James]

hi chris!

To run jabber on HPUX, I had to configure and compile PTH as follows...

In the pth-1.3.7 (or whatever version of pth ur using) run:

./configure --with-mctx-mth=sjlj --with-mctx-dsp=sjlj --with-mctx-stk=sas
--enable-pthread

Then you can 'make' the pth library.

I was having the very same problems as you guys describe below.
get/set/swapcontext() look to be causing the problem.
By using the following switches above, you use sigsetjmp/siglongjump, etc
instead, which works for me (HPUX 11.00)

PS - You probably dont need the --enable-thread switch above

hope this works for you
james

I have the exact same problem. I was hoping that you have found a solution.

The problem I ran into on hp-ux was not the jabber server itself, but
rather the posix threads package. It compiles fine, but it just hangs
when called. If you actually try running the test suite for the pth
package, you end up with a process running that chews up all your CPU
until you kill -9 it. Don't know if that's the case if you call it from
jabber, but you might check...

I got busy, so I wasn't able to resolve the pth problem...
