>Description:
A build of mysql-4.0.1-alpha on DEC Alpha OSF/1 4.0 failed
like this:
gcc -O3 -DDBUG_OFF -o ft_dump ft_dump.o libmyisam.a \
../mysys/libmysys.a ../dbug/libdbug.a \
../strings/libmystrings.a -lpthread -lmach -lexc -lz -lm \
-lpthread -lmach -lexc
/usr/ccs/bin/ld:
Unresolved:
snprintf
>How-To-Repeat:
./configure && make all check install
>Fix:
The problem is that, while mysql checks for the availability
of snprintf, there is exactly ONE place in the source code
where snprintf was used without a wrapping conditional. Here
is a suitable patch:
% diff -c myisam/ft_dump.c.~1~ myisam/ft_dump.c
*** myisam/ft_dump.c.~1~ Sat Dec 22 18:22:07 2001
--- myisam/ft_dump.c Tue Mar 12 08:44:37 2002
***************
*** 105,111 ****
--- 105,116 ----
#error
#endif
+ #ifdef HAVE_SNPRINTF
+ buf[MAX-1]=0; /* safety */
snprintf(buf,MAX,"%.*s",(int) keylen,info->lastkey+1);
+ #else
+ sprintf(buf,"%.*s",(int) keylen,info->lastkey+1);
+ #endif
casedn_str(buf);
total++;
lengths[keylen]++;
With that patch, the build, validation, and installation
completed successfully.
