Re: need help making/installing scotty-2.1.1 on sun4

I would, first of all, reconfigure tcl and tk
with configure --enable-shared
to get shared library support so that when you run a tclsh/wish
executable you save memory because the shared library portion of the
executable is only loaded once. (for all users)
(No, I don't think this will solve your problem, but it will
save memory and startup time for further invocations of any tcl/tk tools)

Do you have Sparcworks compilers? I tend to use those in preference
to gcc for most things.

I use one prefix for Tcl7.5/tk4.1 stuff, /opt/tcl7.5
the scotty stuff is in the scotty directory
underneath that. I've added the appropriate thing to the init.tcl
so that I don't have to set the environment variables.

It looks like your crash comes after a malloc of some kind. I can't be
sure why though.

If you run wish/tclsh, can you load tnm2.1.1.so by hand?
like this:
load /work/ops/bjb/snmp/scotty/tnm2.1.1.so scotty

(correct path if necessary)
