[Asterisk-Users] bristuff-0.2.0RC8m

[Arik Funke]

Hello,

I have not been following the asterisk list the last few weeks but from
the number of requests I have received asking this question I guess it
is best to send my answer to the list for reference.

So here is what I did to compile bristuff on Fedora Core 4.

Make the following changes to these files:
zaphfc/zaphfc.c, line 1000, remnove the leading "(ulong)"
channel.c, line 64 (AST_MUTEX_DEFINE_STATIC(uniquelock);), comment out
channel.c, line 302 (ast_mutex_lock(&uniquelock);), comment out
channel.c, line 304 (ast_mutex_unlock(&uniquelock);), comment out

I have to caution however that I have only a vague idea of the effects
these changes to the source code actually have on the behaviour of
asterisk. In any case I would carefully check before using it on any
production mode system. This said, I have been running my asterisk
server (a small one) with this for a few weeks/months without
registering any problems that I have traced to this hack.

I have sent this hack to kpj at Junghanns.NET but never got an answer back.
Either I have simply adressed myself to the wrong contact, or ...

Anyway, I hope this helps everybody who encounters the same problem as
me. I am of course happy to help anybody if these instructions do not
solve the problem - if I can. If anybody finds out more about this
please send me a CC. Thanks.

With best regards,
Arik Funke


PS: I have the suspicion that the problems arise from a change to gcc.
Did anybody at all encounter this problem with a gcc with version before
4.0.1 or even 3.xx? (try gcc --version for version info)
