Hi Igor,

'usbhid' *is* available via public svn. I checked it out some minutes
ago (via public svn) and it compiled out of the box. Please use the
latest usbhid from svn and try again.

Best,

Alex B.

| I recently (more precisely, yesterday) knew about your package of usbhid
| server;) But as i know its not available via svn and i tried to get it
| from your server as usbhid-20071107.tar.gz tarball. I couldn't build the
| package because of few compilation errors in
| /usr/src/DROPS/tudos/l4/pkg/usbhid/server/lib-linux/contrib/input/input.c
| such as:
|
/usr/src/DROPS/tudos/l4/pkg/usbhid/server/lib-linux/contrib/input/input.c:43:

| error: expected '=', ',', ';', 'asm' or '__attribute__' before
| 'this_object_must_be_defined_as_export_objs_in_the_Makefile
|
| The code causing such errors is
|
| EXPORT_SYMBOL(input_register_device);
| EXPORT_SYMBOL(input_unregister_device);
| EXPORT_SYMBOL(input_register_handler);
| EXPORT_SYMBOL(input_unregister_handler);
| EXPORT_SYMBOL(input_register_minor);
| EXPORT_SYMBOL(input_unregister_minor);
| EXPORT_SYMBOL(input_open_device);
| EXPORT_SYMBOL(input_close_device);
| EXPORT_SYMBOL(input_event);
|
| which maybe explains about that this version of usbhid was developed
under
| other kernel version. Could you please provide a patch fixing the build
| process under 2.6.24-l4?
