Annotation of OpenXM_contrib2/asir2000/gc5.3/README.hp, Revision 1.1.1.1

1.1       noro        1: Dynamic loading support requires that executables be linked with -ldld.
                      2: The alternative is to build the collector without defining DYNAMIC_LOADING
                      3: in gcconfig.h and ensuring that all garbage collectable objects are
                      4: accessible without considering statically allocated variables in dynamic
                      5: libraries.
                      6:
                      7: The collector should compile with either plain cc or cc -Ae.  CC -Aa
                      8: fails to define _HPUX_SOURCE and thus will not configure the collector
                      9: correctly.
                     10:
                     11: Incremental collection support was reccently added, and should now work.
                     12:
                     13: Thread support for HP/UX 11 Pthreads was also recently added.  It is still
                     14: flakey in this release.  (It has only been tested on a uniprocessor.  Even
                     15: there some fraction of thread creation calls fail with a not-yet-understood
                     16: error return from sem_wait.)
