I haven't looked at other parts (inotify for one) in detail; as to the portability, scandir() originated in BSD4.3, so the BSDs should have it, and it appeared in POSIX in 2008. The signature on some older systems may use generic void * where modern systems use more specific pointer types. _______________________________________________ Dnsmasq-discuss mailing list Dnsmasq-discuss@lists.thekelleys.org.uk https://lists.thekelleys.org.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dnsmasq-discuss
