Well, this code compiles perfectly under SuSE Linux 9, so I think that the compiler is telling you it cannot find any function named getaddrinfo().
Make sure you have the correct MACLIBS or whatever the C compiler uses set up. Come to think of it, what C compiler are you using under VM? Is it a freebie? :) -Paul > -----Original Message----- > From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > Behalf Of Dave Jones > Sent: Tuesday, January 23, 2007 6:11 PM > To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU > Subject: a C language question.... > > I know that this is the z/VM forum, but I have a question about > compiling a C program on CMS, so I'm hoping someone here might know the > answer..... > > I've written a short C test program that invokes the new "getaddrinfo" C > library function.
