Re: [CLucene-dev] multithreads

[Doug C. <cu...@lu...>]

I'm not sure a thread library is needed so much as a mutex library that 
is compatible with whatever thread libraries folks end up using.  Like 
Java Lucene, CLucene should be thread-safe, but not itself 
multithreaded.  But I'[m probably just being over-precise: a particular 
mutex implementation will probably only work with a particular thread 
implementation.

I've heard good things about the Boost Libraries 
(http::/www.boost.org/).  They have a portable C++ thread library that 
includes a mutex implemenation.  However this might be overkill.  You 
might just want to define a couple of macros, like MAKE_MUTEX, and 
WITH_MUTEX, and then define them differently for different platforms.

[CLucene-dev] multithreads

[Ben v. K. <be...@vi...>]

    Hi everyone,

I thought I'd ask for your opinions on clucene. At the moment multithreading
support is not implemented. This was mainly because i wasn't sure what
library to use for this... as far as portability, etc is concerned. What do
you think? There's a pthreads port for windows around that i've seen... or
does anyone have a better idea?

Ah.  I see that you already are.  I should read all of my email before I 
start replying!

Jimmy,

That's great news.  I have not yet had a chance to start work on this, 
so I am not duplicating your efforts.  I look forward to seeing your 
contributions.

Are you on the (new) clucene-developers mailing list?  We just created 
it yesterday.  You can add yourself by visiting:

Thanks again,

[CLucene-dev] build scripts

[Jimmy P. <jp...@sd...>]

The first version of the Linux build scripts are finally coming
along.  I built a clucene shared object for the first time tonight.
Tomorrow I will write the build scripts for the example code to test
out libclucene.so.  I am using very recent build tools: Automake 1.6,
Autoconf 2.57, and libtool 1.5a, as well as gcc 3.2.2.  

I was able to keep the directory structure the same as in Windows.
Also I tried to keep as close to the Windows code as possible, often
including replacement functions (some copied from Wine, some
handwritten) when a particular function did not exist on Linux. The
filesystem calls were also a little different on Linux than windows
and required some #defines.  I will post the code when I get the
examples working.  If anyone needs the code sooner, or would like to
help with the port, I can send them a copy now.  A goal of the port
was to have the same code base build on Windows and Linux.  Thanks Ben
for getting rid of the dependency on tchar!

Best, 
  Jimmy.

Re: [CLucene-dev] make-based build?

[Ben v. K. <be...@vi...>]

Someone is working on some scripts for linux at the moment. Should be up
pretty soon... I'll let you know on the cool list :)

Thanks,
Ben

[CLucene-dev] make-based build?

[Doug C. <cu...@lu...>]

The readme file doesn't say what build tool you use.  I'm guessing it's 
Visual C++?  Is that right?

I primarily work on Linux, and thus would like a make-based build. 
Should I go ahead and add this?  It should work cross-platform, using 
Cygwin on Win32 platforms...

Thanks,

Doug
