Hi,
2011/3/6 Herve Poussineau<[email protected]>:
FYI:
[PATCH 1/3] w32: Add new directory hierarchy for MinGW extensions
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg56858.html
[PATCH 2/3] w32: Add macro timersub to sys/time.h
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg56859.html
[PATCH 3/3] osdep: Remove conditional compilation (fixes w32 compilation)
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg56860.html
Yes, this patch series also addresses the same problem (and one more)
in a better way: it did not add code, but removed a conditional compilation.
(my first try was identical to Herve's patch).
As I replied to those, there are several problems with your approach.
Wrapping timersub() would solve the other problem nicely.
If we'd want to fake a POSIX-like programming environment, there are
other approaches like gnulib. But so far, the approach has been using
wrappers.
Obviously I missed your reply, but I just read it.
Patch 3/3 does not conflict with your intension.
It is still a better solution to include sys/time.h
and can be applied independent of the other
two patches.
