With the help of Giorgos, I finally got all the diff into separate patch files.
Explanatory notes:
1. I am using mlrate-1.1.0.tar.gz and nngs-1.1.14.tar.gz (coz it is more stable and reliable than 1.1.16 version), and only nngs-1.1.14.tar.gz need to be patched.
2. configure.patch must be applied in order to compile nngs src in FreeBSD 5.3 (for i386) with gcc 3.4.2; the patch is hinted by this bug reported in sourceforge:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1201565&group_id=59572&atid=491424
For your convenience, the gist is listed here:
-----------------------------------------------
-lang-c89 deprecated
quote from man gcc (3.3.5-20050130)
Note: Previous versions of cpp accepted a -lang option
which selected both the language and the
standards conformance level. This option has been
removed, because it conflicts with the -l option.
just use -std=c89 (not sure but seem to works)
-----------------------------------------------
P.S.: Although this can work, I can't find the option "-std" in "man gcc", quite strange. Any hints?
3. Up to now, the compilation can be done successfully with GNU make, but if the following patch(es) is/are not applied, the compiled binary (nngssrv) will throw a run-time error and dump core. The patches are credited to Dan Nelson and Giorgos Keramidas. Either one set of the patches is enough to avoid the run-time error. Which one to choose is up to your own.
i) The patch of Dan Nelson involves only one file - command.c, and the patch file is command.c.patch.DanNelson
ii) The patch of Giorgos involves two files - command.c and command_list.h, the patch files are command.c.patch.GiorgosKeramidas and command_list.h.patch.GiorgosKeramidas
If you meet any other problem in the process of setting up the server, pls let us know.
P.S.: After using Giorgos' method to create the diff patches, I don't know how to apply the patches back to the original file(s). Can Giorgos help me once more? (Actually, I am quite a newbie in FreeBSD world.)
4. Final word: when configure nngs src, it is best to enable adminlevels options, it is done by:
./configure --prefix=<your_install_dir> --enable-adminlevels
Hope this open-source software can be integrated into "ports" system of FreeBSD.
Thank you, all.
