Description

Head.c: In function 'http_head_req': Head.c:55: warning: implicit declaration of function 'hstrerror' Head.c:58: error: 'struct hostent' has no member named 'h_addr' it's times like this when i wish i knew c++... current status: no clue what's causing that error. i've contacted the current upstream developer. man netdb.h says: The <netdb.h> header shall define the hostent structure that includes at least the following members: char *h_name Official name of the host. char **h_aliases A pointer to an array of pointers to alternative host names, terminated by a null pointer. int h_addrtype Address type. int h_length The length, in bytes, of the address. char **h_addr_list A pointer to an array of pointers to network addresses (in network byte order) for the host, terminated by a null pointer. This isn't c++, this is just using struct members that aren't guaranteed to exist. There needs to be a configure test or something here and #ifdefs, or refactoring of the code. I and a friend tried for a while a week or two ago to fix it and this is what we found, although we didn't get it to work. There doesn't really seem to be much of a desire for this package, and there haven't been updates for a while. I haven't heard back from the developer, so I think I'm going to reorphan this. Ok, I'm going to block it from dist-f9, so that it has to be fixed before it comes back into the distro. |
