I'm a bit concerned that it may require things RTEMS does not have. Does it mmap in ways we don't support? I doubt it forks new processes but that has to be answered. Some basic research plus an attempt to compile it for RTEMS with problem sections disabled is a good first step of any porting evaluation. FWIW I looked at porting the PDF viewer from chromium to RTEMS. Their build system seemed quite complex. > > Chris > _______________________________________________ > devel mailing list > devel@rtems.org > http://lists.rtems.org/mailman/listinfo/devel >
