xapian-core
- If
CLOEXEC
is supported, we now set it on the lock file fd and pipe, which means the lock is more reliably released when a program using xapian callsfork()
andexec()
.
- Fix
XO_LIB_XAPIAN
to work without libtool with modern versions of GNU m4.
- Improve configure probe for
sys_errlist
, etc by ensuring we can actually link a test program using them. Previously we only checked they were declared, but the Android NDK declaressys_errlist
in its headers but doesn't actually implement it. Patch from Tejas Jogi.
Java
- Fix configure to find
jni_md.h
on Cygwin, OS X, *BSD, AIX. The issue with Cygwin was reported by John Bankert on xapian-discuss.
Search::Xapian
- Allow building against xapian-core 1.4.x as well as xapian-core 1.2.x.
