System name: portnoy
Type and version: SPARC/5 8.1.11 (with mkserv)
Display type: cgthree
What were you trying to do?
Compile the following program:
#define _POSIX_SOURCE
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
int
main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
time_t t;
int r;
struct stat stat_buf;
r = stat(".",&stat_buf);
t = stat_buf.st_mtime;
return(0);
}
Example compile:
%gcc foo.c
foo.c: In function `main':
foo.c:14: structure has no member named `tv_sec'
What's wrong:
I think the system header files are broken when
_POSIX_SOURCE is defined.
What should have happened:
The program should have compiled without error.
(I think; Please correct me if I'm wrong.)
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
