I've done some work on getting fam to work on FreeBSD. It mostly builds
now, however I haven't gotten all the functionality I had to #ifdef out
rewritten yet (specifically NFSFileSystem::NFSFileSystem() and
FileSystemTable::create_fs_by_name() need pretty much complete
rewrites). I've done some work on the configure script and it now
correctly (I think) finds the differences between BSD and Irix/Linux,
however I'm having some problems with the Makefiles. Imon.c++ will not
need to be built for the BSD version (all the functionality will be in
the ImonFreeBSD module using FreeBSD's fmon functionality) and I'm not
entirely sure how to do the conditional compilation... I welcome help
from those more experienced at configure.in and Makefile.am on this.
I don't think the rewrite of the two methods I mentioned earlier will
take terribly long, I'd hoped to have it finished this weekend, but it's
now 11:30PM sunday, and I have a networking test tomorrow, so it will
have to wait for later in the week.
If anyone is interested, I can send a patch of the work I've done so
far, but there is still a bit of work to be done.
I've rambled long enough, now... I hope to be able to report more
progress soon.
