<h2>Cross-platform functions</h2>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
Most POSIX calls are supported on Unix and Windows.
|
|
|
|
|
For areas that are different (e.g. scanning directories)
|
|
|
|
|
BOINC supplies some generic functions with implementations for all platforms.
|
|
|
|
|
Similar code may be available from other open-source projects.

<h2>Stack traces</h2>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
You can use Stackwalker to generate symbolic stack traces
|
|
|
|
|
if your application crashes.
|
|
|
|
|
These traces will be returned in the
|
|
|
|
|
'stderr_out' field of results.

<h2>Windows-specific issues</h2>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
The set of 'standard' DLL differs somewhat among
|
|
|
|
|
9X/NT/2000/XP.
|
|
|
|
|
To avoid crashing because a DLL is missing,
|
|
|
|
|
call ::LoadLibrary() and then get function pointers.
