[Freeipmi-devel] Re: [Freeipmi-users] previous functions no in current version..

[Al Chu]

Hi Sharad,

Sorry that the functions disappeared.  I removed many of them b/c I was
trying to clean up libfreeipmi.  Too many "convenience" functions for
the FreeIPMI tools had floated into the library and bloated it up.  

We had a lot of "convenience" functions in libfreeipmi and libfreeipmi
was getting bloated with too much crap.  As you noticed, a lot of it was
moved into common/src.

In FreeIPMI 0.3.0, the code that is now used by ipmi-sensors and ipmi-
sel for SDR cache management is in ipmi-sdr-api.[ch] under common/src/.

Do you require that these functions (or similar) be accessible in a
library you can link against or do you think you can just include them
in your code?  I have a locally created library (GPLed but not yet in
FreeIPMI) that is more like the 0.2.0 one that might suite your needs
better.
