Hi to all,

I want to do some programming for a embedded system: (Port our SIP/RTP Stack to some embedded system)

System is:
----
NetBSD 3.0 #1570: Tue Aug 15 15:08:31 CEST 2006 TG Board total memory = 65536 KB
avail memory = 46160 KB
plb0 (root)
cpu0 at plb0: 200MHz 405EP (Revision 9.80)
----

This is a VoIP Box running under NetBSD with a PPC Architecture. (ibm405 core embedded in Xilinx Virtex {2-Pro, 4 FX} series FPGA)

Can you give me some directions ?

Our sip stack is commercial/closed source at the moment, but if i win the project,
i can do some porting of libraries/targets if necessary and give that work back of
course ...

Thank you,

helmut

I'm not sure what you are looking for.

I started binding a osip to FPC but i didn't had the time (and will) to finish the binding.
I can give you what I have started to continue working on it, but only if it will return as open source back for everyone to use.

Ido

Sorry, i will clarify what i want to do.
-
My firm is writing software for telco-carriers.
VoIP Solutions, billing solutions, firmware etc.
We traditionally programmed in delphi, fpc, c and c++. I have a carrier grade sip/rtp stack written in fpc for linux and windows. Lib osip is nice but has neither the features nor the performance needed here.

Now i have to answer a tender (rfq/rfi). If i win my team and i have to port the applications to an embedded box. (powerpc/netbsd embedded system)

I am not willing to port our work to c++.
(We are currently try to kill all old c firmware projects as object pascal / fpc gives us a clear market advantage through cut down turnaround times and less error prone code.)

If i win the tender our sip stack will maybe run around 100.000 Voip/Gateway/CSTA boxes. They have to be supported with a timeframe for around 5-8 years.

So my questions are in detail:

What is the state of a netbsd-powerpc port ?
What is done ? What has to be done ?

If we can use fpc for development my firm can support the fpc project by supporting a/the netbsd-powerpc port. Also we plan to release some basic datastructures libraries into public domain.

Thank you, helmut
