Known Possible Problems
-----------------------
o There is a problem with some CA clients not detecting a network
connection going down. This only applies to clients that are trying
to write to the IOC at the moment the connection goes down. When the
IOC is up again, the client reconnect after a moment (~1 min.) - a
regular IOC reboot works. It's just in some cases that a client
(e.g. display manager) might not react as expected (e.g. turn
graphical elements white) while the connection is lost.
o The 3.13 compatibility mode has passed some general testing for both
native and GNU compilers with static and shared libraries and for
statically and dynamically linked builds. Not every combination has
been thoroughly tested. If the build system won't build your 3.13
application successfully, contact me.
o Caveat: To be compatible with HP-UX 10, GCC defaults to use the DCE
(user space) threads package. If you see messages like "errLogInit
failed" when running a Channel Access client, you are probably
linking against the old DCE threads library instead of libpthread.
o There is a problem with a CA client not detecting a network
connection going down. This only happens with some clients, though.
o The 3.13 compatibility mode isn't thoroughly tested yet.
Please feel free to contact me if you encounter serious problems.
