[vtkusers] VTK on HP UX

[R K Shyam Prakash]

Hi,
        I was trying to build VTK 4.2.2 on HP UX 11.0 with Java
bindings. The build failed at the following code fragment in
vtkJavaUtil.cxx
 
#define VTK_GET_MUTEX()  vtk_get_mutex()
#define VTK_RELEASE_MUTEX() vtk_release_mutex()
#elif defined(__FreeBSD__) || defined(__linux__) || defined(sgi) ||
defined(__APPLE_CC__)
#include <pthread.h>
pthread_mutex_t vtkGlobalMutex;
static void vtk_get_mutex() {
    static int inited = 0;
    if (!inited)
      {
      inited = 1;
      pthread_mutex_init ( &vtkGlobalMutex, NULL );
      }
    pthread_mutex_lock(&vtkGlobalMutex);
}
// #define VTK_GET_MUTEX()  pthread_mutex_lock(&vtkGlobalMutex)
#define VTK_GET_MUTEX()  vtk_get_mutex()
#define VTK_RELEASE_MUTEX() pthread_mutex_unlock(&vtkGlobalMutex)
#else
// for solaris
#include <thread.h>
#include <synch.h>
mutex_t vtkGlobalMutex;
#define VTK_GET_MUTEX()  mutex_lock(&vtkGlobalMutex)
#define VTK_RELEASE_MUTEX() mutex_unlock(&vtkGlobalMutex)
#endif
#endif
 
Now, when changed the code as follows it compiled OK
 
#define VTK_GET_MUTEX()  vtk_get_mutex()
#define VTK_RELEASE_MUTEX() vtk_release_mutex()
//#elif defined(__FreeBSD__) || defined(__linux__) || defined(sgi) ||
defined(__APPLE_CC__)
#else
#include <pthread.h>
pthread_mutex_t vtkGlobalMutex;
static void vtk_get_mutex() {
    static int inited = 0;
    if (!inited)
      {
      inited = 1;
      pthread_mutex_init ( &vtkGlobalMutex, NULL );
      }
    pthread_mutex_lock(&vtkGlobalMutex);
}
// #define VTK_GET_MUTEX()  pthread_mutex_lock(&vtkGlobalMutex)
#define VTK_GET_MUTEX()  vtk_get_mutex()
#define VTK_RELEASE_MUTEX() pthread_mutex_unlock(&vtkGlobalMutex)
/*
#else
// for solaris
#include <thread.h>
#include <synch.h>
mutex_t vtkGlobalMutex;
#define VTK_GET_MUTEX()  mutex_lock(&vtkGlobalMutex)
#define VTK_RELEASE_MUTEX() mutex_unlock(&vtkGlobalMutex)
*/
#endif
#endif
 
Is my approach right. If yes, can somebody make the changes (to identify
HP UX as well along with linux and others) and commit to the CVS. By the
way, how is HP-UX OS is defined?
 
Thanks
Shyam
