Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-ports-bugs->amdmi3 Over to maintainer (via the GNATS Auto Assign Tool) > Synopsis: [patch] lang/tolua++: build shared library Is shared lib really needed? - Shared lib is unsupported upstream - Shared lib without version (.so instead of .so.0) may cause updating problems if ABI is changed. - Building shared lib for tolua++ breaks consistency with tolua (which is pretty similar port and only install static lib as well), also I'll have to resend my patch to add tolua++ support to bsd.lua.mk. Yep, this is not actually an argument. Static lib works pretty good and has a very small footprint. But if there're good reasons for the shared lib, I'll commit this. -- Dmitry Marakasov . 55B5 0596 FF1E 8D84 5F56 9510 D35A 80DD F9D2 F77D amdmi3@amdmi3.ru ..: jabber: amdmi3@jabber.ru http://www.amdmi3.ru State Changed From-To: open->closed Committed. Thanks!

I think this could be added without too many problems. On Fedora we have tolua++-$(LUA_VERSION).so. > - Building shared lib for tolua++ breaks consistency with tolua > (which is pretty similar port and only install static lib as well), > also I'll have to resend my patch to add tolua++ support to > bsd.lua.mk. Yep, this is not actually an argument. I think the better option would be to try to push it there as well then. > Static lib works pretty good and has a very small footprint. But > if there're good reasons for the shared lib, I'll commit this. I'm heavily using tolua++ in our robot software and several sub-libraries and plugins use it. If they all now have to link statically against tolua++ it sums up, especially on an embedded system... Having a shared library would be better in that regard. I'm the package maintainer for tolua++ in Fedora and we've made no negative experience with adding this patch (Fedora CVS is currently down, once it's back you can see the spec and patches at http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewcvs/rpms/tolua++/F-9). I think we gain a useful feature at minimum cost and risk. Regards from Aachen.

The tolua++ port only builds the static library. With a trivial patch the shared library is built as well. Fix: Attached patch causes the shared library to be built *additionally* to the static library (put into files/patch-makeso).
