I am a C/C++ coder, but I have mostly been in Java land the later years. Interested in making it work, but not sure how big a task it is.<br>
<br>
Some linux / UNIX 2008 functions is missing on OSX (and BSD?), like at-functions. I can see two libraries (gnulib or libspl from MacZFS) that technical could help with this, but are there licensing issue using these?<br>
<br>
Also rpc_sizeof method (but seems easy enough) is missing. Will it work between different implementations?<br>
<br>
FUSE seems to be the biggest problem, with macfuse being unsupported for years and osxfuse also behind in version.<br>
<br>
Beside autoconf, automake, format strings and other trivial (famous last word) stuff, are there other stuff I am overlooking?<br>
<br>
cheers,<br>
