I have applied a patch to CVS to fix the problem. It is all your patch, except for the part you got from me, which was wrong. :-(
It took me a while to realize the subtlety of your patch. First, it removes the use of sa_family_t _except_ for cases that don't have SOCKADDR_STORAGE, where it is required. Second, it allows for a structure member named ss_family or __ss_family, tested via configure. This should fix most platforms. I am not sure how cygwin is going to handle this --- we might have to add a specific sa_family_t typedef for that platform --- MinGW does have sa_family_t, but probably doesn't need it anyway. Testing for the size of sa_family_t is possible via configure, but if only cygwin needs it, we can just hard-code that platform in the template files. Cygwin folks, would you test CVS and let me know. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kurt Roeckx wrote: > On Tue, Jun 17, 2003 at 11:01:27PM -0500, Bruno Wolff III wrote: > > > > My system does have its own sockaddr_storage definition.
