Thanks guys, I got through that error by adding --enable-abstract-sockets option to my configure.<br><br>I got the error,<br>checking for XML_ParserCreate_MM in -lexpat... no<br>configure: error: Could not find expat.h, check config.log for failed attempts<br>
<br>I cross compiled expat2.0.1 for ARM, but some how I am not able to compile dbus with expat and get through this error.<br><br>this is how I compile dbus now..<br><br>./configure --prefix=/programs/arm-dbus --host=i686-linux -target=arm-linux-gnu --enable-abstract-sockets --includedir=/programs/arm-expat/include --libdir=/programs/arm-expat/lib<br>
<br>tried doing...<br>env CPPFLAGS=-I/programs/arm-expat/include LIBS=-lexpat LDFLAGS=-s<br>before configure.<br><br>but still the same error.<br><br>At this link... <br><a href="http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dbus/2006-December/006778.html">http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dbus/2006-December/006778.html</a><br>

This *<b><span style="font-weight: bold;">should</span></b>* tell “configure”
to assume that abstract sockets exists so that it won’t bother trying to
build/run the test program. So your command line might look like this:</span></font></p>

<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Hi I am trying to cross compile dbus 1.2.8 for ARM and this is how I
run configure...<div><div></div><div class="h5"><br>
<br>
./configure --prefix=/programs/arm-dbus --host=i686-linux -target=arm-linux-gnu

<br>
My compilation stops at...<br>
"checking abstract socket namespace... configure: error: in `/programs/src/dbus-1.2.8':<br>
configure: error: cannot run test program while cross compiling<br>
See `config.log' for more details."<br>
<br>
How do I disable test program check while cross compiling?<br>
<br>
Many thanks,<br>
