Hello, Manuel,
As to cdate.c, you are correct the change to how time is called is not needed. The only change needed is the addition of the _USE_32BIT_TIME_T define. This makes windows use a 32bit time_t definition instead of the default 64bit time_t definition. According to MSDN, both win32 and win64, by default, use a 64 bits definition. The use of the 64bit time_t definition was causing a segmentation fault on windows, since bigloo assumes the time_t value can be stored in a long. I agree with your caution on the csocket.c changes. In fact, upon receiving your initial response to my patches, I reviewed the changes to csocket.c, suspecting these changes were the likely source of your questions, and found a mistake. In get_sock_hostname, the prepocessor condition arround the call to getsockname should reference, as it originally did, BGL_HAVE_GETADDRINFO not BGL_HAVE_INET_ATON or BGL_HAVE_INET_PTON. I believe I originally made the change due the conditional definition of sin above it. In the case where neither BGL_HAVE_INET_ATON or BGL_HAVE_INET_PTON are defined, sin is a pointer. This would have caused the call to getsockname to fail. An updated patch is attached. Additionally, as you probably noticed given the windows version defines, I decided to use features only found in Windows XP and above. I thought this was reasonable. In fact, we may want to consider moving the minimum version to Vista. This would allow us to use inet_pton as well as other functions. What are your thoughts? Thanks, Joseph Donaldson
