Engelschall, All rights reserved. + Version 1.0.8 (24-Jun-1999) + + The MM library is a 2-layer abstraction library which simplifies the usage + of shared memory between forked (and this way strongly related) processes + under Unix platforms. On the first (lower) layer it hides all platform + dependent implementation details (allocation and locking) when dealing with + shared memory segments and on the second (higher) layer it provides a + high-level malloc(3)-style API for a convenient and well known way to work + with data-structures inside those shared memory segments. + + This library was successfully tested on the following platforms (and + should automatically adjust to other platforms, of course): + + o i386-unknown-freebsd3.1 FreeBSD 3.1 + o i386-unknown-freebsd3.2 FreeBSD 3.2 + o i386-unknown-freebsd2.2.7 FreeBSD 2.2.7 + o i386-unknown-freebsd2.2.8 FreeBSD 2.2.8 + o i386-unknown-freebsd2.2.2 FreeBSD 2.2.2 + o i386-unknown-openbsd2.5 OpenBSD 2.5 + o i386-pc-bsdi4.0.1 BSDI 4.0.1 + o i586-pc-linux-gnu RedHat 5.2 + o i586-pc-linux-gnu RedHat 5.0 + o i686-pc-linux-gnu Redhat 6.0 + o i486-pc-linux-gnulibc1 Linux + o i686-pc-linux-gnulibc1 Slackware 4.0 + o i586-pc-linux-gnulibc1 Slackware 4.0 + o sparc-sun-solaris2.6 Solaris 2.6 + o sparc-sun-solaris2.7 Solaris 2.7 + o i386-pc-solaris2.7 Solaris 2.7 + o alphaev56-dec-osf4.0d Digital Unix v4.0D + o alphaev56-dec-osf4.0c Digital Unix v4.0C + o powerpc-ibm-aix4.2.0.0 AIX 4.2 + o powerpc-ibm-aix4.3.1.0 AIX 4.2 + o alphaev56-unknown-linux-gnu Linux/Alpha + o powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu LinuxPPC 4 + o m68k-apple-aux3.1.1 A/UX 3.1.1 + o hppa1.1-hp-hpux10.10 HP-UX 10.10 + o hppa1.1-hp-hpux10.20 HP-UX 10.20 + o hppa2.0-hp-hpux10.20 HP-UX 10.20 + o arm-unknown-linux-gnu Corel Netwinder SA110 + o mips-sni-sysv4 SIEMENS ReliantUNIX + o mips-sgi-irix6.2 IRIX 6.2 + o mips-sgi-irix6.3 IRIX 6.3 + o mips-sgi-irix6.4 IRIX 6.4 + o mips-sgi-irix6.5 IRIX 6.5.4 + + Credit has to be given to the following people who contributed ideas, + bugfixes, hints, gave platform feedback, etc. (in alphabetical order): + + o Ronald Appelfelder <ra@intraregio.net> + o Robert Belleman <robbel@wins.uva.nl> + o Jeff Clark <hotwire@hoser.com> + o Eric Cholet <cholet@logilune.com> + o Dean Gaudet <dgaudet@arctic.org> + o Ask Bjoern Hansen <ask@netcetera.dk> + o Jim Jagielski <jim@jagunet.com> + o Mats Josefsson <matjos@rsv.se> + o Sergey Kachanovsky <ranger@tversu.ru> + o Martin Kraemer <martin.kraemer@mch.sni.de> + o Rasmus Lerdorf <rasmus@lerdorf.on.ca> + o Dave Malhotra <davem@glue.umd.edu> + o Christophe Massiot <massiot@via.ecp.fr> + o Patrick <puzzled@symplex.net> + o Charles Randall <crandall@matchlogic.com> + o David Rees <drees@ucsd.edu> + o Christian Reiber <chrei@en.muc.de> + o Dan Sullivan <sullivan@epa.gov> + o Tom Vaughan <tvaughan@aventail.com> + o Rick Watson <rick@akbar.cc.utexas.edu> + o Mark Wilkie <mark@exceptionmedia.com> + o Cliff Woolley <jwoolley@wlu.edu> + + The documentation and latest release can be found on + http://www.engelschall.com/sw/mm/ + + Ralf S.
