Of course. I know this. I mean that if someone wants to use .so (using dynld) feel free to do so. Since there are no difference using libc.a (and so shared objects) instead.
It is just a choice. If someone wants to use shared objects it can do this. It is like we do with newlib now. No difference

I don't remember if new elf.library is needed (too many changes).. BTW .so or .a are the same. They are just stubs call to .library. So you will not see any difference using .a or .so

Beta 10 Released
https://github.com/afxgroup/clib2/releases/tag/v.1.0.0-beta10

Keep in mind that clib2 now is a shared.library. So you need to install clib2.library into LIBS: folder (An installer is in the package)

There are tons of changes and fixes (and maybe new bugs..)
The screenshots above was showing Unix sockets
They are emulated via native sockets. You don't need to change any linux code to made them work. There are a couple of examples in the test_programs/threads folder. That was possible thanks shared library that is opening a lot of new possibilities.
pthread mutexes functions now are using OS4 Mutex functions
There are many new functions added (and usually tested)

try to look at the command name

?

I've made some changes to glfw3. I've added partial joystick support (not tested at all) and I've started to implement some missing cursors functions I have to finish. There is a lot of work to do but it is in an usable state if you want to give it a try

@NinjaCyborg

There are no great changes to do. It is almost strightforward but at moment with my clib2 there is a crash in newlib called from va.library and we are checking what is wrong

I'm working on it right now (on my clib2 version) but before release it I want to fix a problem on va.library since i want to try to enable hardware acceleration on it via vaapi.
But there is a strange crash in kernel caused by va.library I don't understand.
However it has a lot of libraries enabled but I want to add something else before release it

More libraries added

I still prefer that kind of GUI than MUI one...

GLFW2 is almost complete (IIRC..) while GLFW3 has only the window/gl working IIRC (thanks SDL2 port was really easy to reuse code).

F.e.
https://github.com/afxgroup/glfw/blob/master/src/os4_window.c
https://github.com/afxgroup/glfw/blob/master/src/os4_context.c

I have also a working version of GLEW somewhere but porting GLEW is really easy

At moment we don't plan to add it to SDK.
However we are preparing a docker image that will contain everything

@flash

A lot of libraries has been added:

Only if GL4ES is inserted into SDL2

Bump!

It sets a variable into newlib to true that is tested at runtime and change the path handling

I've created an apt package repository for clib2.
At moment it is tested againts ubuntu 20.04

Here you can find all the details.
I'm planning to add other libraries and if you want to contribute just create a .deb package with the library and send it to me

Keep in mind that this is a work in progress so something could change in the future.

At moment you will find only three test packages. the clib2 itself (the shared version), libogg and gdbm

If you have suggestions let me know
