Hello,

Fedora 8 was released in November 2007 [1]. It is not supported anymore
since January 2009 [1]. I cannot test the ROHC library on all OSes that
existed one day. It probably works fine. Try it. If you encounter a
problem, tell me. I'll try to provide you some help.

Yes.

Yes. It is not a released version, so there is always the risk to have a
regression, but all tests run fine on all systems the library was tested
on.

Start with the rohc_compress2() function in the code. That function is
the entry point for ROHC compression. Read the code of the function.
Then read the code of the functions the rohc_compress2() function calls.
And so on. The code contains many comments and references to the RFCs
related to ROHC. Keep an eye on the RFCs while reading the code.


>   last , I want to build didier-barvaux_rohc_main-r776.tgz to my fedora8 , run it well and test it , how do it ?

See http://rohc-lib.org/wiki/doku.php?id=library-install-sources
#native_build_on_unix-like_systems

You cannot follow the instructions blindly because you don't use a release version, but a snapshot of the dev version:
- step 1: do it
- step 2: do it
- step 3: skip it
- step 4: adapt the name of the archive
- step 5: skip it
- step 6: adapt the name of the directory
- step 7: replace ./configure by ./autogen.sh
- steps 8-10 : do them


Regards,
Didier
