2666.0. "Why is cam_tape.h not in the export list?" by AOSG::FILTER (Automatic Posting Software - mail to flume::puck) Tue Nov 12 1996 21:28

Subj: 	Why is cam_tape.h not in the export list?

cam_tape.h exists on my local system in /usr/include/io/cam
It does NOT exist in <whatever pool>.nightly/export/alpha/usr/include/io/cam
Why not?

The reason for my asking:
I am making changes to mt.c and would like to #include <io/cam/cam_tape.h>
but it doesn't build with that #include.  However, it does exist locally.

Help???

Subj: 	Re: Why is cam_tape.h not in the export list?

It's on the installed system because cam_tape.h is delivered via the
kernel/include/io/cam/Makefile SUBDIRS rule.  In order for cam_tape.h
to appear in export/alpha/usr/include/io/cam, it needs to appear in the 
./usr/include/io/cam/Makefile . Whoever introduced cam_tape.h decided that
it didn't need to be exported because nothing in usr space needed it.


When you say "mt.c", I assume you mean ./usr/bin/mt/mt.c?  You'll need to
add cam_tape.h to ./usr/include/io/cam/Makefile  in order to use it.  
Apparently mt.c is the first usr space command to have a need to include
it.  All the kernel work is able to include it directly from the kernel
space.

Thanks, John.
That was clear and very useful.
