Re: Unable to find platform reset classification DLL

Hi,

Take a look here:  http://www.qnx.com/developers/docs/7.0.0/#com.qnx.doc.neutrino.lib_ref/topic/s/shutdown_system.html 

The shutdown command on QNX is built on a reusable component called libshutdown.   libshutdown on QNX 6.6 seems to have 
the same behavior described in the 7.0 docs -- when called, it, attempts to open "shutdown_nvram.so" and pass it a 
reason string; if no such file is found, it emits the  message you're reporting.   I'm not sure why this wasn't 
documented for 6.6, though.

Disclaimer:  I'm not a QNX employee - just someone who found supplying the shutdown_nvram dll a very practical way to 
hook my own code into the shutdown sequence without running afoul of timeouts.

Re: Unable to find platform reset classification DLL

Note that the function you put in the DLL changed between 6.6 and 7.0 (which is why we didn't document it in 6.6).

You can safely ignore the message.
