Please replace the current icon with this one, it has increased resolutions for Windows 7. Thanks!

Add mutexes for Boxi under Win32

Achim J. Latz — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 17:08:03 -0000

Creating mutexes for the Win32 client apps (bbackupctl.exe, bbackupd.exe, bbackupquery.exe) enable the detection of running instance during install/uninstall/upgrade. The fixes are trivial and platform-specific, sorry for that:

in main.cc

#include <wx/snglinst.h>

bool BoxiApp::OnInit()
{
// Initialise global SSL system configuration/state
SSLLib::Initialise();

// added to enable detection of running instances
const wxString mutex_name = wxT("__boxbackup_mutex__");
wxSingleInstanceChecker * m_pSingleInstanceChecker;
m_pSingleInstanceChecker = new wxSingleInstanceChecker(mutex_name);

even though the name wxSingleInstanceChecker might indicate otherwise, this only creates the Mutex under Win32, and does NOT prevent running multiple copies of Boxi.exe on the same machine at the same time. Check also http://docs.wxwidgets.org/stable/wx_wxsingleinstancechecker.html for more information.

Remove dependency on mgwz.dll

Does not work at the moment, need to investigate more

Box Backup

change the following line in infrastructure/mingw/configure.sh:
if ! ./configure --target=i686-pc-mingw32 --enable-static-bin; then

Boxi

configure (for correct Box Backup options)
BOX_CONFIG_OPTS="$ax_check_ssl_headers $ax_check_ssl_lib
--host=$host_alias --target=$target_alias --enable-static-bin"

configure-mingw.sh (for Boxi)
if ! ./configure --target=i686-pc-mingw32 --enable-static \

Remove Boxi autoimport warning

Achim J. Latz — Thu, 13 Aug 2009 11:16:32 -0000

under MingW the warning below can be avoided by changing configure-mingw.sh to have the following

LDFLAGS="-mthreads -L/usr/i686-pc-mingw32/lib -Wl,--enable-auto-import" \

$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 3.4.4 (cygming special, gdc 0.12, using dmd 0.125)

/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-mingw32/3.4.4/../../../../i686-pc-mingw32/bin/ld: warning: auto-importing has been activated without --enable-auto-import specified on the command line. This should work unless it involves constant data structures referencing symbols from auto-imported DLLs.Info: resolving vtable for CppUnit::TestSetUpby linking to __imp___ZTVN7CppUnit9TestSetUpE (auto-import)

Add SVN information to Boxi

Achim J. Latz — Wed, 12 Aug 2009 23:00:31 -0000

See feature request 2831768 at https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2831768&group_id=135105&atid=731485

Works by simply running a shell script in autogen.sh that adds the SVN revision to the BOXI_VERSION macro, if we are compiling a SVN checkout (i.e. a .svn directory).

Avoid OSX libtool/glibtool problem

Achim J. Latz — Wed, 12 Aug 2009 22:56:02 -0000

The libtool installed on MacOSX is not GNU libtool, but a tool from NeXTStep. glibtool is what the GNU libtool has to be called (as ld requires the real
libtool to function). An alias is a workaround, but the real solution would be in autogen to check whether glibtool and glibtoolize should be used (see patch).

alias libtool=glibtool
alias libtoolize=glibtoolize
