Martin v. Löwis <mar...@v.loewis.de> added the comment: If the Sun guy only commented on _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED, I'm not sure that this also applies to _XOPEN_SOURCE. For example, on my Solaris 9, I have (in signal.h) conditionally
#pragma redefine_extname sigwait __posix_sigwait and in sys/socket.h #pragma redefine_extname connect __xnet_connect So these feature selection macros not only select what API is declared in the header files, but also what specific semantics some of the functions have (e.g. if the traditional BSD semantics deviates from the POSIX semantics). In cases where there are alternative implementations of some system calls, we *want* to select the POSIX definition. So I think we should continue to define _XOPEN_SOURCE. I don't mind also defining __EXTENSIONS__. _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1759169> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
