---------------------------------------
Summary: errno extern variable redefined. Not compiling in Android
Key: THRIFT-3370
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-3370
Project: Thrift
Issue Type: Bug
Components: C glib - Library
Affects Versions: 0.9.3
Reporter: Gonzalo Aguilar
It seems that the definition of errno we are using on the c_glib transport is
not 100% correct. While it's ok for ISO C99 compilers it fails under Android.
My opinion is that Android is behaving incorrectly here but I cannot be sure
until I check with you.
In the thrift_socket.c an thrift_server_socket.c implementations there's a
errno variable declared.
/* for errors coming from socket() and connect() */
extern int errno;
This variable is redefined in the ndk of the in the file
arch-arm/usr/include/errno.h
I don't know why.
/* a macro expanding to the errno l-value */
#define errno (*__errno())
So the compilation fails because redefined.
Commenting out the extern definition on these files it compiles, it was tested
and it works. But I don't know how this can work since the definition of errno
on the files change from int to pointer.
Can someone comment this please?
