2008-12-20 Bruno Haible <br...@clisp.org> * lib/wchar.in.h (mbsrtowcs): Redefine if REPLACE_MBSRTOWCS is set. * m4/mbsrtowcs.m4 (gl_FUNC_MBSRTOWCS): Invoke gl_MBSTATE_T_BROKEN. Set REPLACE_MBSRTOWCS if mbsrtowcs needs to be overridden. * m4/wchar.m4 (gl_WCHAR_H_DEFAULTS): Initialize REPLACE_MBSRTOWCS. * modules/wchar (Makefile.am): Substitute REPLACE_MBSRTOWCS. --- lib/wchar.in.h.orig 2008-12-21 04:28:47.000000000 +0100 +++ lib/wchar.in.h 2008-12-21 04:28:31.000000000 +0100 @@ -167,7 +167,11 @@ /* Convert a string to a wide string. */ #if @GNULIB_MBSRTOWCS@ -# if !...@have_mbsrtowcs@ +# if @REPLACE_MBSRTOWCS@ +# undef mbsrtowcs +# define mbsrtowcs rpl_mbsrtowcs +# endif +# if !...@have_mbsrtowcs@ || @REPLACE_MBSRTOWCS@ extern size_t mbsrtowcs (wchar_t *dest, const char **srcp, size_t len, mbstate_t *ps); # endif #elif defined GNULIB_POSIXCHECK --- m4/mbsrtowcs.m4.orig 2008-12-21 04:28:47.000000000 +0100 +++ m4/mbsrtowcs.m4 2008-12-21 04:28:31.000000000 +0100 @@ -1,4 +1,4 @@ -# mbsrtowcs.m4 serial 1 +# mbsrtowcs.m4 serial 2 dnl Copyright (C) 2008 Free Software Foundation, Inc. dnl This file is free software; the Free Software Foundation dnl gives unlimited permission to copy and/or distribute it, @@ -9,9 +9,15 @@ AC_REQUIRE([gl_WCHAR_H_DEFAULTS]) AC_REQUIRE([AC_TYPE_MBSTATE_T]) + gl_MBSTATE_T_BROKEN + if test $REPLACE_MBSTATE_T = 1; then + REPLACE_MBSRTOWCS=1 + fi AC_CHECK_FUNCS_ONCE([mbsrtowcs]) if test $ac_cv_func_mbsrtowcs = no; then HAVE_MBSRTOWCS=0 + fi + if test $HAVE_MBSRTOWCS = 0 || test $REPLACE_MBSRTOWCS = 1; then gl_REPLACE_WCHAR_H AC_LIBOBJ([mbsrtowcs]) gl_PREREQ_MBSRTOWCS --- m4/wchar.m4.orig 2008-12-21 04:28:47.000000000 +0100 +++ m4/wchar.m4 2008-12-21 04:28:31.000000000 +0100 @@ -7,7 +7,7 @@ dnl Written by Eric Blake. -# wchar.m4 serial 14 +# wchar.m4 serial 15 AC_DEFUN([gl_WCHAR_H], [ @@ -80,6 +80,7 @@ REPLACE_WCTOB=0; AC_SUBST([REPLACE_WCTOB]) REPLACE_MBSINIT=0; AC_SUBST([REPLACE_MBSINIT]) REPLACE_MBRTOWC=0; AC_SUBST([REPLACE_MBRTOWC]) + REPLACE_MBSRTOWCS=0; AC_SUBST([REPLACE_MBSRTOWCS]) REPLACE_WCWIDTH=0; AC_SUBST([REPLACE_WCWIDTH]) WCHAR_H=''; AC_SUBST([WCHAR_H]) ]) --- modules/wchar.orig 2008-12-21 04:28:47.000000000 +0100 +++ modules/wchar 2008-12-21 04:28:31.000000000 +0100 @@ -44,6 +44,7 @@ -e 's|@''REPLACE_WCTOB''@|$(REPLACE_WCTOB)|g' \ -e 's|@''REPLACE_MBSINIT''@|$(REPLACE_MBSINIT)|g' \ -e 's|@''REPLACE_MBRTOWC''@|$(REPLACE_MBRTOWC)|g' \ + -e 's|@''REPLACE_MBSRTOWCS''@|$(REPLACE_MBSRTOWCS)|g' \ -e 's|@''REPLACE_WCWIDTH''@|$(REPLACE_WCWIDTH)|g' \ -e '/definition of GL_LINK_WARNING/r $(LINK_WARNING_H)' \ < $(srcdir)/wchar.in.h; \
