Under Solaris 2.4, Bind 4.9.5-rel installs the file sys/bitypes.h . Typically
it's installed as /usr/local/include/bitypes.h . This file is usually
pulled in from /usr/local/include/netdb.h . The typedefs of interest are
at line 78:
typedef /*signed*/ char int8_t;
typedef unsigned char u_int8_t;
typedef short int16_t;
typedef unsigned short u_int16_t;
typedef int int32_t;
typedef unsigned int u_int32_t;
When the Kerberos configure script is told to look in /usr/local/include
via '--with-cppopts=-I/usr/local/include', compiles of several modules
(src/krb524/krb524d.c, src/appl/telnet/telnet/commands.c, etc) fail due
to the #define's in src/include/db-config.h replacing the right-hand side
of the typedefs above:
#define int8_t signed char
#define u_int8_t unsigned char
#define int16_t short
#define u_int16_t unsigned short
#define int32_t int
#define u_int32_t unsigned int
My fix for now is to edit the db-config.h file after configure is done
to wrap the #define's with the same wrapper used in bitypes.h:
#ifndef __BIT_TYPES_DEFINED__
#define __BIT_TYPES_DEFINED__
[...]
#endif /* __BIT_TYPES_DEFINED__ */
Since the inclusion of one or both of the bitypes.h or db-config.h file
can occur in any order, I suggest that the configure utility be modify
to emit the above wrapper automatically when db-config.h is built.
