Morgul:
Well, then I guess the only thing to do, is to put that version in precursors, and see if it works. All you should need to do is to put the headers in include/raknet and everything in source wherever the current raknet source is in our repo.

That was my thought as well, but no go. Still the most up to date version in the repo.
I'll fiddle around some and see what else I can find, if anything.

Morgul:
Regarding the 'fix' you found of manually putting '-shared' in the gcc line; that makes it a shared library. IIRC, the way to do this via configure is --enable-shared.

In thinking about this, -shared might imply -fPIC, which might be the actual flag that's needed. Unsure of that, and I don't have to time to see if we're building with -fPIC normally. I think that the problem is it's not position independent, and breaks on 64 bit systems somehow. Again, this is just ignorant speculation.

Rosencrantz:
Well I found how to get the -shared option added in correctly. I used the Crystal Space External Application configure script generator and diffed some of the jam rules until I found something useful. Found the appropriate jam file, tried it out on 32-bit, and commited it. Works fine on my work box, I'll see if it actually fixes the problem when I get home.

Rosencrantz:
Ok, there is something here at work amidst the jamfiles that is *very* *very* wierd.

Exhibit A) On kashmir, "jam -d x pcnetworkentity" with rev 1114 shows that it is being compiled with -shared. This is good.

Exhibit B) On my amd64 "jam -d x pcnetworkentity" with rev 1114 shows that it is being compiled without -shared. This is not good.

Exhibit C) http://gne.pastebin.ca/308553. Causes everything to work normally, but I've no idea if that's safe to change.

Any thoughts?
