Anything else need looking into ? I have updated the 'current.tgz' to reflect your recent patches I have to remeber do this manually as SourceForge still isn't allowing cron jobs from user shell accounts. I could place my python script that does this in our projects directory so that others could run it after commiting changes if this would be helpful Norman ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by: Beat the post-holiday blues Get a FREE limited edition SourceForge.net t-shirt from ThinkGeek.

The FreeBSD port maintainer recently suggested the attached patch in
order to create shared libraries by default - although I don't know if
this meets the intentions of the PLIB developers. Honestly I _never_
create shared PLIB libraries ;-)

No - it doesn't.

No - me either.
The problem is that it's too easy to swap out the library without
recompiling the application. This causes really subtle and hard
to diagnose problems with end-users because PLIB is such a heavily
C++ class-based application with lots of inline functions.
The benefits with shared libraries are not typically very useful to
the kinds of application people use PLIB for.
So, I would strongly advise against this change for FreeBSD and I
certainly won't accept anything of the sort for Windows or Linux.
The reasoning behind this is as follows:
Right now, an end user can upgrade his copy of PLIB very easily
without preventing ANY of his existing binaries from working - even
if the changes we made were not reverse compatible, etc, etc.
If he uses binary distributions of games, then they won't be dependent
on PLIB itself (which is a HUGE benefit for game writers) - if he
builds his programs from source then there still isn't a problem because
the header files and libraries always match.
Shared libraries are good for two things:
1) Saving disk space by making binary files smaller.
2) Saving RAM by having multiple applications share the same library
binary image (I'm not even sure this works).
These days, in the era of $1 per Gigabyte hard drives, the cost of
having non-shared libraries is something of the order of one tenth
of a cent per application. Since there are probably only a few
dozens of PLIB applications on most people's hard drives, the cost
of non-shared libraries on disk space is a few cents.
Saving RAM (even if it works in practice) is unlikely to be very
necessary for the kinds of applications PLIB is used for because
they are highly interactive - and typically consume a very large
fraction of CPU and graphics bandwidth - so the end user is most
unlikely to be running more than one or two of them at any given
time.
So PLIB gains ZERO benefit from being a set of shared libraries -
but incurrs all of the problems in the worst possible ways.
Just say "NO" to shared libraries for PLIB!
