Re: [ptxdist] how to configure perl scripting to compile with thread support?

[Martin Hollingsworth <Martin.Hollingsworth@itk-engineering.de>]

Hello Bernhard,
thanks for the patch and for testing it on a target system. I appreciate your efforts!

Unfortunately I can't get it working on my system. I would like to avoid updating to the latest PTXdist version, since I want to keep my build environment as close as possible to the vendor supplied board support package. As I understood your previous message, it should be sufficient to copy the perl.make file to the rules directory of my board support package. I can verify that the build process runs the make script, by adding an invalid line to the file which creates an expected error during build.

I verified with the PERL manual of the used version, that the build flag is the same in the older version  5.14.2
http://search.cpan.org/~flora/perl-5.14.2/INSTALL#Threads

My perl.make file looks a little different than the one from the current GIT version, but I assume that's due to the different ptxdist and perl versions. Maybe this could be the source of problems, but I don't know ptxdist internals that well to find the problem.
This is the section of my perl.make file:
--------------
PERL_CONF_OPT	:= \
	--prefix=/usr \
	$(CROSS_AUTOCONF_ARCH) \
	--target=$(PTXCONF_GNU_TARGET) \
	--set-ld=$(CROSS_CC) \
	-Dusethreads
--------------

Several builds and tests later I wonder: What am I missing here at this point? Any idea where it could go wrong but the image actually compile without any error?
Thanks and Regards, 
Martin
