>Description:
krb5.h is missing extern "C" {} around various routines
it defines. this causes trouble when building c++ based
utilties will call kerberos routines. in particular,
i am having trouble with:
krb5_get_init_creds_opt_init
krb5_get_init_creds_opt_set_tkt_life
krb5_get_init_creds_opt_set_renew_life
krb5_get_init_creds_opt_set_forwardable
krb5_get_init_creds_opt_set_proxiable
krb5_get_init_creds_opt_set_etype_list
krb5_get_init_creds_opt_set_address_list
krb5_get_init_creds_opt_set_preauth_list
krb5_get_init_creds_opt_set_salt
krb5_get_init_creds_password
krb5_get_init_creds_keytab
but various other places in krb5.h should have c linkage
declarations.
>How-To-Repeat:
build something with g++ and try to link one of the above.
>Fix:
well, in my code, i just extern "C" { #include "krb5.h" }
but the header should do this job, not me. perhaps just
wrapping the entire krb5.h with a single extern "C" would
be better (i.e. less would fall through the cracks)
