Nope, it isn't defined. Why I mentioned it is I was working on compiling for WindowsCE for an iPAQ and <errno.h> was included regardless of config. WinCE SDK doesn't have errno.h (I can fake it though) but I figured it we should have an ifdef around the include. Basically for embedded environments I have to fudge stuff because the config runs, for example, on my Win2000 box where I have Microsoft Embedded Visual Tools, but it generates a config for Win32 (not for WinCE). I then was just hand patching to fix stuff. I just wasnt sure how to address this; I added the ifdef HAS_HEADER_ERRNO to get a compile but if I committed this patch then everyone else's would break because, while 99% of systems have <errno.h>, the #define wont exist. I guess what I _could_ do is: #ifndef WIN32_PLATFORM_PSPC /* PocketPC */ # include <errno.h> #endif But I don't think this was the way to fix this. -Melvin
