Hi everyone. I recently downloaded a copy of sunrpc for use on a project I am working on and began receiving errors when trying to compile a .x file. I am on Windows 7, 64 bit and its part of a large QT / Mingw project. I was using the command
rpcgen -Y C:\Mingw\bin -C -c -o xdraircraft.cpp xdraircraft.x It works fine on Linux (We dont even need the -Y flag there) but did not work from within QT creator. All I saw was the error message "fopen" access denied. After downloading the source I identified the problem. It is using tmpnam which returns something like \abcd1. in Windows. Under the C: drive it has a permission error unless you are compiling as an administrator. I made a fix in rpc_main.c that fixes this problem and uses your TMP variable as a template to mkstemp. //MARPOSS^M /*^M * Open input file with given define for C-preprocessor^M */^M static void^M open_input(const char *infile, const char *define)^M {^M char szTemp[360];^M ^M if (getenv("TMP")) { sprintf(szTempFile,"%s\\rpcXXXXXX.tmp",getenv("TMP")); close(mkstemp(szTempFile)); } else { tmpnam(szTempFile);^M } ^M find_cpp();^M sprintf(szTemp, "%s %s %s %s > %s\n", CPP, CPPFLAGS, define, infile, szTempFile);^M //printf(szTemp);^M ^M system(szTemp);^M fin = fopen(szTempFile, "r");^M if (fin == NULL) {^M perror(szTempFile);^M crash();^M }^M }^M Sorry for the ^M, I am using VIM. Hope this helps someone out there. -- Chris Benesch BeneschTech, LLC ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ GnuWin32-Users mailing list GnuWin32-Users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gnuwin32-users
