Charva (ncurses Java UI) – Working on BeOS

I took a few mintues (ok, so like 30 – 45) today to get a port of charva working on BeOS.

It uses the ncurses from BeBits, and the as-yet-unreleased (heavily in development) beunited.org J2SE port.

I’m contacting the author of charva, to see if I can get the makefile and shellscript to run the test programs included in the tree. THat’s really all I had to change. That and the bloody ncurses junk. :-p

    Had to change the ncurses stuff?

    I compiled ncurses 5.4 on BeOS with absolutely zero issues yesterday. The BeBits ones are in a bad way but the GNU must have finally cleaned it up.

    Same applies to pico – it now compiles fine if you tell it BeOS is FreeBSD 5. Before it died in hundreds of places…. UW did a code cleanup…

    Nah, I just had to install it. I installed it from bebits, but it didn’t stick the headers / etc in the places they needed to be for development.

    Once I finished with Charva, I quickly removed all traces of ncurses. :-p

    I don’t like having things I don’t need installed.
