X-SW-Source: 2003-12/txt/msg00105.txt.bz2 Would there be any objection to including it (meaning the 'official' zlib version of crc32) in the zlib package anyhow? In my case (and I would think many others), it makes what I'm doing completely portable between Linux and eCos without having to ifdef for eCos. Steve -------- "Space is almost infinite.

CRC32 is available in the CRC package. -- Gary Thomas MLB Associates -- Before posting, please read the FAQ: http://sources.redhat.com/fom/ecos and search the list archive: http://sources.redhat.com/ml/ecos-discuss -- Before posting, please read the FAQ: http://sources.redhat.com/fom/ecos and search the list archive: http://sources.redhat.com/ml/ecos-discuss
