Hello, We're looking into the feasibility of porting DFB to a non-linux embedded RTOS. The target RTOS is vaguely posix-like, and can for example create a basic memory-based filesystem. It has a threading library through it's certainly not pthreads. Shared libraries are clearly out, so static-only builds.
At this stage I'd be interested to hear first impressions, from "doable but non-trivial" to "don't even think about it!". A quick hack to the devmem system would probably get us moving re: memory access to the display memory and accelerator MMIO region, but I'm more concerned about other assumptions in DirectFB that require a full blown filesystem-backed OS. Porting stuff like libjpg, libpng, zlib etc won't be too much of a problem. Any comments greatly appreciated, or pointers to others having tried this before. Thanks, John -- John Williams PetaLogix - Linux Solutions for a Reconfigurable World w: www.petalogix.com p: +61-7-30090663 f: +61-7-30090663 _______________________________________________ directfb-dev mailing list directfb-dev@directfb.org http://mail.directfb.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/directfb-dev
