Summary: spamc/libspamc.c uses C++ comment characters
Product: Spamassassin
Version: 3.1.0
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: P5
Component: Building & Packaging
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
spamc/libspamc.c uses C++/C99 comment characters "//", instead of "/*" and "*/".
This causes problems for:
1. Any compiler that does not handle these.
2. Any compiler that can handle them, but needs a special option to enable this
feature.
This is essentially a duplicate of #4577, which includes a patch. I've raised
this as a separate report because #4577 mistakenly reports that it only affects
IBM xlc on AIX -- I've run in to the problem on Solaris using Sun's Forte
compiler, and the problem is going to affect any environment with a picky
compiler.
Please (a) apply the patch in #4577, and (b) consider an automated test for
SpamAssassin that does a slightly better version of "find . -name \*.[ch] -print
| xargs grep '//'" and fails if it finds any.
