New release of PTLib

I have just bundeled up the changes and bug fixes of the past 2 years and released PTLib 2.10.9.6.

Most notable in this release is working IPv6 on *BSD, macOSX and Solaris as well as support for newer compilers and many small platform fixes.

Since PTLib is the foundation for the GNU Gatekeeper and many H323Plus projects, all these improvements get propagated into those projects as well.

Changes:
- IPv6 support fixed for *BSD, macOSX and Solaris
- support for newer compiler, eg. gcc 13 and VS2022
- support for C++-17
- support for Win64 builds
- support AIX as platform
- small OpenBSD fixes
- other small fixes

H.323: IPv4 to IPv6 migration

Many networks are migrating from IPv4 to IPv6. What can you do if still have H.323 endpoints that only support IPv4 ?

The GNU Gatekeeper can translate IPv4 into IPv6 calls and vice versa.
You can use one GnuGk to IPv6 enable all of your existing IPv4 endpoints.


 


 

All you have to do is enable IPv6 in your configuration and GnuGk will automatically
detect the connection type of your endpoints and convert the call.

All it takes is one switch in your config:

[Gatekeeper::Main]
EnableIPv6=1
