[Gambas-user] Problem with READ on a UDP socket

[Gareth Bult]

I would love to and indeed have tried .. can't compile the SVN code tho'.

I get the following problem, apparently it's a known issue with libtool, problem is I've not come across a known solution yet .. :(
(I'm on Ubuntu 8.10, which subject to popular press coverage is a ****** nightmare.)

Can you try your code with Gambas 3?

I have changed many things in the gb.net component there, but I didn't 
backported them to Gambas 2. If it fixes your problem, I will do!
