"file /opt/IBM/ibmtts/lib/libibmeci.so" will tell you a few more details. I am only given the .so file in Linux format, and don't have the source to recompile it on OS X as a dylib. Is there anything I can do to convert this .so to a .dylib? In principle, there's "objcopy", part of GNU binutils. Problem is, Darwin currently isn't a supported target platform of GNU binutils. There's a small hope however, since Darwin's assembler and linker are based on GNU binutils 1.38, which was current several years ago. Supporting Darwin in current GNU binutils would be a pretty project on it's own. I'm looking into this myself but don't expect anything. Also, I am trying to static linking at compile time, but possibly could look at performing dynamic loading at runtime if that would get this to work. Alternative is to mimic an ELF dynamic linker. Linux' or NetBSD's ld.elf sources would be a start. Dunno which of both can be done more easily. With both approaches, you probably need to provide some additional libraries to satisfy libibmeci.so's dependencies. Linking it against Darwin's system libraries directly won't work, but coding this compatibility lib is the easier part to be done. This email sent to site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com

You are asking for Wine for Mac OSX, which, AFAIK does not exist. I presume that libibmeci.so is from a PowerPC based Linux system and not an Intel based system? If it is the latter, then you are also asking for hardware emulation and I am rapidly losing interest. :-) On Tue, 9 Nov 2004 13:55:19 -0700, Madentec Matt Budd <mattb(a)madentec.com> wrote: This email sent to site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com

DS HELP JASON TOWNSEND

site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com Delivered-To: darwin-dev(a)lists.apple.com Jason, Any suggestions? Thanks, --Matthew. ------------------------------ Message: 2 Date: Mon, 1 Nov 2004 18:58:07 -0800 From: Jason Townsend <jtownsend(a)apple.com> Subject: Re: DS Help To: darwin-dev(a)lists.apple.com Message-ID: <243F654C-9808-4301-8EE8-7882F48FF8A3(a)apple.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed From: "Mr. Wong" <keilinw(a)hotmail.com> In general we encourage developers to use standard types. Native types should only be used as a last resort when a standard type is not available. In the case of LDAP, native record types are currently not supported. The mappings set up in Directory Access determine the search base, scope, and optionally a list of object classes to filter on, so it wasn't quite as straightforward to pass all that information through the native record type name as it is in NetInfo. Native attributes are supported on LDAP, these are simply the native prefix followed by the name of the attribute in LDAP (for example, what you would see in the output of ldapsearch). In the case of cn=Persons, I suspect that either you want to use the People record type which is for storing inetOrgPerson/Address Book types of information, or you want the Users record type which can include login information as well as the inetOrgPerson/Address Book information. I would recommend you map one of these record type. I'm not sure what you mean by "custom" attributes... the standard vs. native distinction is fairly straightforward. The standard attribute types are defined in the Directory Services headers and documentation, and represent a namespace which can be used across multiple directory systems. The native attributes are specific to a particular directory system (or even a particular node), and represent that specific namespace as it is actually stored. The various plug-ins have to map between the standard and native types. For LDAP, any attribute which has the native prefix is interpreted to mean exactly the attribute name that follows the prefix. Directory Access is the best tool to set up/inspect LDAP mappings at the moment. Is that what you were asking? Hope that helps, -Jason _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored. Darwin-dev mailing list (Darwin-dev(a)lists.apple.com) Help/Unsubscribe/Update your Subscription: http://lists.apple.com/mailman/options/darwin-dev/site_archiver%40lists.app… Yes that helps very much....I do, however, have one more question. You are saying that my "directory access" mapping settings enable me to view specified nodes from the LDAP server. With this info in mind I tried "browsing" the LDAP server with dscl. To my dismay I was NOT able to browse the node of interest (cn = Persons). I tweaked the directory access mappings to my hearts conent and still haven't been able to browse the desired node.... I am looking for some help with DS....I've been in contact with Finlay Dobie and he suggested I look here for Jason Townsend. Here is my problem... I've managed to do a dsDoAttributeValueSearch and pull some custom records / attributes of interest from the local NetInfo directory (by modifying the DSTestTool that came with the DS SDK). I've also managed to get "SOME" results from a a full blown LDAP server, but I'm having trouble specifying custom NODES with custom attributes.... .... I need to search a node with a cn = Persons... is there any easy way of doing this? Also how can I search for Custom attributes as opposed to standard or native. P.S. Where is the easiest source for the mapping between Directory Services and LDAP.... I've been usiing the "Directory Access" utility.. This email sent to site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com

Darwin-dev mailing list (Darwin-dev(a)lists.apple.com) Help/Unsubscribe/Update your Subscription: http://lists.apple.com/mailman/options/darwin-dev/site_archiver%40lists.app… it turned out to be an hardware issue... my motherboard was showing after a few days all kind of errors. The temperature of the CPU went up too 200 Farenheit(92 celcius) and was going to sleep constantly. I have problem that my G5 (a 1st generation Dual 1.8 and 2nd generation Dual 2.5) USB and Firewire are dead after running our software for a very longtime. (see description below) Question 2: If I could add something to my source code to prevent this from happening, like polling the USB and the Firewire device through IOKit. Question 3: Also could i add code to my application to wake up the USB and Firewire? The problem never happens on a G4 so it must something specific with the G5 IOKit drivers. We have written a software that transfers video data (2vuy) format to the Decklink card through the QuickTime API and and uses coreAudio output Audio Unit's for the sound. All this happens in threads!!!! We intend to build broadcast solution based on the Decklink card. When we use this system for a very long time (12 hours or more...) we noticed that sometimes on a G5 system (currently never happend on a G4) the USB bus and Firewire bus are not active anymore. When I plugin an iPod the iPod doesn't mount, when i try to attach keyboard the keyboard isn't active or the mouse doesn't get current( no lights in the mouse) etc... Sometimes it doesn't happen for 24 hours, so it is random. The ethernet cable is still working because in System Log i see the information unplugging/plug in appearing, I can still access the machine remotely. I can access the files. My program still runs fine, the clock still keeps on ticking, the fans of the G5 still keeps on working etc. So I'm wondering if the driver of the Decklink card could have caused this? As anyone else seen this kind of problems on a G5 system maybe with different software. This email sent to site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com
