[Clas_offline] libfpack.a, libfputil.a, and libmapmanager.a for 64-bit compilation

[adhikari at jlab.org]

Dear all,
I tried libbosio.a instead of the the three libraries (libfpack.a,
libfputil.a, and libmapmanager.a) and it seemed to work in case of one
package of codes (compilation was really really slow though - took me a
whole day despite the fact that the same set of codes took just about a
few minutes in case of 32 bit compilation).

I also wanted to try making my own fpack, fputils and mapmanager libraries
in the 64 bit. I did make the libs for the first two, but I couldn't see
the mapmanager package available for the checkout. Does anyone of you know
how I could get the mapmanager from the CVS or anywhere?

My last issue is about my attempt to compile gsim (again in 64bit). I
could easily compile it in the 32 bit but, I got errors while making the
gsim_bat (haven't tried the gsim_int yet). It seems that I am successful
in building the libgsim.a in my TOP_DIR, but not quite so with regard to
the gsim_bat executable. One major problem was the "ld couldn't find
-lmysqlclient". I checked and found that there was no libmysqlclient.a in
/group/clas/builds/64bit/STABLE/build/lib/ . I couldn't also build that
myself because that also doesn't seem to be available for CVS checkout.

Anyone's help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Krishna

your code to it. I tested and they compile on 64 bit just fine.

if it breaks code dependencies for some people, wouldn't it make sense
to have them compiled in CLAS_LIB for 64 bit (even without optimization)
