Package: mingw-w64-i686-dev Version: 3.1.0-1 Severity: wishlist Hello Stephen,
It would be nice if mingw would provide alarm. Maybe it kinda does actually: /usr/i686-w64-mingw32/include/io.h:unsigned int alarm(unsigned int seconds); /usr/i686-w64-mingw32/include/signal.h:#define SIGALRM 14 /* alarm clock */ but it does not seem to work (at least under wine) and alarm is supposed to be in unistd.h. There is a lot of confusion on the web wheter mingw support alarm, whether it is implemented as a noop, why it is in io.h, etc. Some clarification would be very welcome.
