C++ problem in sys/socket.h
I got a mail from bento about a compiler problem in one of my ports, see [1], but I can't reproduce it on any of my -STABLE machines (which are about a month old). It seems that something has broken /usr/include/sys/socket.h for C++ somewhere between my last update (which is 1.39.2.3) and bento's, both in -STABLE and -CURRENT. Should it be fixed or is there a workaround? I did check through cvsweb, and sys/socket.h has some changes, but I don't see which of them is so harmful ...

JK You're right, my bad. Son of a gun, I've used 'extern "C"' for gobs of
JK stuff but I guess I never ran into C header files that had C++ reserved
JK words.
JK In that case, although it's considerably more work I'd take a look at
JK writing some C wrappers around the offending stuff. You could write the
JK wrappers such that they'd compile with the offending include file, and be
JK callable from C++. Sounds tedious and time consuming, but it might be
JK quicker than waiting for someone to fix the headers in question.
Here's something that *might* work:
extern "C" { // For function definitions
#define class c_class
#include bad_header.h
#undef class
}
After this, you just use the struct as usual, but call the class field
c_class in your source. The name shouldn't matter, since it's just an
offset in the struct anyway ...
Of course, it woulde be better to have the bad header fixed, but as
Jim says, that probably will take some time ...
If the bad header uses any other words that is reserved in C++, they
can be handled in the same way ...
