Hi Corinna, I saw that you exported __get{delim,line} in the cygwin dll. I've had this modification locally for awhile now. There are a number of autoconfiscated applications which check for these functions and use them if present. Unfortunately, autoconf's AC_CHECK_FUNCS will not pickup CPP definitions in headers because the test links to the c library using a phony prototype. Thus, in order to facilitate autoconf, I've added the necessary resource aliases. I've also taken the liberty of replacing the CPP definitions with actual function prototypes for improved clarity. The patch for doing these operations is attached. I hope you find it satisfactory.
Cheers, Nicholas
2005-07-09 Nicholas Wourms <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * cygwin.din (getline): Add symbol alias to avoid problems with autoconf's AC_CHECK_FUNCS macro. (getdelim): Likewise. * include/sys/stdio.h (getline): Improve clarity by replacing the cpp definition with a proper function prototype. (getdelim): Likewise. * include/cygwin/version.h: Bump API minor number.
