Archive site thor.ucar.edu, VxWorks Archive: The VxWorks archive is a respository for user contributed code for use with the VxWorks realtime operating system. The archive contains both UNIX development tools and VxWorks specific code. Access is via a mail-based server. First time users should mail the request "send index" to the listed address. Here are some words that describe what's in the archive: vxworks,realtime This archive is administered by Richard Neitzel, thor@thor.ucar.edu, who submitted the entry on Fri, 15 Sep 89 09:29:15 MDT.

This index is the reply you'll get to: mail netlib@thor.ucar.edu send index. To examine the full index for any library send a request of the form: send index from library_name. To search for somebody in the membership list: Who is Joan Doe? displays entries containing "Joan" and "Doe". (no spelling correction!) You may include several requests in a single piece of mail, but put each on a separate line. Send the requests to "netlib" even though replies appear to be coming from "netlibd". You'll be talking to a program, so don't expect it to understand much English. The Internet address "netlib@thor.ucar.edu" refers to a machine at the National Center for Atmospheric reasearch in Boulder. This should be understood on all the major networks. All the software in the archive is submitted and distributed AS IS. Neither NCAR nor the authors should be held liable for any problems arising out of the use of this material. If you uncover a bug, please do the following: 1> Send a bug report to the author. 2> Send a bug report to thor@thor.ucar.edu. 3> If you have workable patches, send them to both the author and thor@thor.ucar.edu. An inventory list is given below and in the indices for the individual libraries. -------quick summary of contents--------- unix - This contains useful routines for VxWork development that run on UNIX systems. To get the full list request 'send index from unix'. xdbx - This is an X11 based wrapper for dbxWorks, that provides the same functionality for X users as dbxtool provides under suntools. To get the full list request 'send index from xdbx'. patch - This is a utility to patch source code. This is the recommended of updating archive code. To get the full list request 'send index from patch'. vx - This is general index of VxWorks code, including math routines, drivers, utilities, etc. To get the full list request 'send index from vx'. buglist - This is simply an index that details current bugs and/or patches to archived code. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Source format - All source is in shar format. To extract the needed files, edit the shar files up to the line '#!/bin/sh', then type 'sh file'. Submissions - We can handle the following formats - 1/2" or 1/4" tar or cpio, MS-DOS 5.25 or 3.5" disks, email, ftp. Send email to thor@thor.ucar.edu, NOT to netlib! Ftp may be done by anonymous ftp to thor.ucar.edu. Please put submissions in pub/incoming. Access to non-email sites - If you do not have email access, there is a dialup number. Please call me at 303-497-2057 for more information. We can also send out items on of the same format listed above, if you send me a blank tape/disk. the address for this is: Richard Neitzel National Center for Atmospheric Research Box 3000 Marshall Field Site Boulder, CO 80307-3000
