System name: deathtongue
Type and version: SPARC/IPX 7.6R (1 update(s) to same version)
Display type: cgthree
What were you trying to do?
Compile a program. The program does not use the function bcopy()
or the function index(). The program does, however, use the
hesiod library.
What's wrong:
bcopy() and index() are undefined.
What should have happened:
It should have compiled.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
When built for Solaris, the hesiod library shoud use memcpy()
and strchr(). As a general rule, it is a bad idea to build
a library with routines that are not defined on the system.
