Message-ID: Date: 15 May 91 20:08:33 GMT Sender: usenet@nlm.nih.gov (usenet news poster) Reply-To: warsaw@nlm.nih.gov Organization: Century Computing, Inc. Lines: 30 Has anyone out there tried to write some RPC code using Sun C++ 2.0? I've found quite a few problems with some of the header files that come in the C++ distribution. In particular, there are bogosities in , , and . The first two I've been able to patch, but I haven't been able to get a corrected file to work yet. Note that I'm new to RPC (but not C++) so I could be doing some things wrong. Also, even though C++ comes with a version of rpcgen, I've found that I cannot use the generated files directly, except for the generated .h file. And the C++ rpcgen takes entirely different switches than "regular" rpcgen. It would be nice if rpcgen(++) where just a superset of rpcgen! Does anybody else have similar experiences? Also, does anybody know if these files have been fixed for 2.1, and if Sun C++ 2.1 FCS is shipping? Thanks very much. -Barry NAME: Barry A.
