John,
Sorry about that, I should have made that clear in my first note ...I am
using the "new" socket support provided by z/VM 5.2 LE, and not the
older support provided with the TCP/IP product. The TCPMAINT 592 mdisk
is not accessed when I attempt my C compile.
I also attempted to understand the netdb.h file (on the Y disk) and got
completely lost. Hopefully, someone from C or LE development can point
me in the right direction on this issue.
Thanks again.
DJ

Dave,
There is a netdb.h on the TCPIP 592 disk too. Might it have got in
the way. Though I must admit to some puzzlement at the declaration of
the function in netdb.h.y on my 5.2. I haven't the stamina to figure
out what the macro __new4104 does for you. Maybe Mike Donovan is
reading this.
May I respectfully suggest that some of the appenders in this thread
create a IHateC forum and strut their thing there insted?
Cheers,
j.

I've written a short C test program that invokes the new "getaddrinfo" C
library function. However, the z/VM C/C++ compiler complains with the
following error message when I attempt to compile my test program:

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong (besides the obvious fact that I
am reduced to using C as a programming language, which has to be one of
the worst tools ever devised..the use of C has set back good software
development by 20 years, imho.)
Thanks for any help and have a good one.
