Hi Mark,

 

As you know, I have trouble with hp3458a which is using very old asyn & StreamDevice. So I am trying to rebuild the hp3458a IOC.

 

I git clone the latest asyn from GitHub (commit 07f52d99f1977b76191dda505cf9d24b90548743). Firstly I tried to compile it on Debian-7 (wheezy) against base-3.14.12.3 which is pre-installed on our Debian-7 servers. However, it failed: ../../asyn/drvAsynSerial/drvAsynIPPort.c:467:21: error: ‘O_REUSEPORT’ undeclared (first use in this function).

 

A little google search indicates this might be related to Debian 7’s old kernel or system library. So, I moved to a newer server with Debian-9 (stretch) and built the latest asyn and the latest StreamDevice successfully against base-3.15.6 which is pre-installed on our Debian-9 servers.

 

When I try to rebuild the hp3458a IOC against the latest asyn & StreamDevice, it fails:

  while reading 'asyn.dbd' to create 'hp3458a.dbd'

What is the best way to fix this problem?

 

Thanks,
