Will there ever be a port to BOINC for 5.x, or just Dano/variants? Or never?

What think the assembled minds?

Surely there already is, as SetI@Home uses it, and BeOS net_server and even BeOS/PPC have valid, working SETI clients.

I was going to try to compile but got sidetracked. Might try later this week and see what problems I find, if any.

I think that BOINC readme is saying something about MySQL, and as MySQL is not ported to BeOS, probably BOINC will not work.

 That is for the server-side only, the clients do not need MySQL to run.

im trying to get the BOINC client compiled as well, using gcc 3.4.3 / BeOS R5 Max.
make keeps failing in boinc_api and I havent gotten any farther than that.

you can get around the mySQL requirement with
./configure --disable-server

anyone having better luck?  ive gotten it to work in linux/sparc and linux/x86



(p.s. I could have sworn I had an account here in 2000...)

Unportable to net_server, and any BONE-based release we have yet... At least not by me

Client needs pthreads (we kinda have these), itimers (again, kinda), flock'ing (again, kinda) and... shm/ipc - we don't have these, at all, and they're not easily hackable

It also has some C++ components meaning gcc3 is not a good idea (name mangling, no workee), and they don't support gcc2.

The normal client still works... lets just wait for Haiku to move to BOINC, shall we? A lot of OS's have no BOINC, so I guess the old one will work for a long time still. And it has a GUI...

MYOB,

Thanks for the update and finding out why specifically it fails.

Grazie.

I've heard that a BOINC port to Haiku-gcc4 is in the works, if not already finished.  Check on teamhaiku.com
