[Openal-devel] OpenAL compilation under Linux Ubuntu desctop/server 32/64-bit

[Dmitry Kostjuchenko]

Hi!

Sorry for double posting, my first experience with mailing lists :)

While porting my library from Windows to Linux platform and using
Ubuntu distribution compilation fails with error that
PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE is not existing. To combat this issue I
propose to include following lines in 'config.ac':

# To combat an issue with PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE not included on
some platforms we shall
# explicitly define _GNU_SOURCE.
AC_DEFINE([_GNU_SOURCE], [1], [Define to 1 to explicitly include
PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE on some gcc versions.])

As a result all compiles out from the box without error. Or are there
any settings that I missed to triger and not to do these steps?

Best regards,
Dmitry.
