Testing error sys/socket.h for FreeBSD. When testing headers in config/auto/headers.pl file, headers are tested one by one, but sys/types.h is needed to successfully complete testing of sys/socket.h for FreeBSD. What can be done? Is it possible to control testing of headers from config/init/hints/freebsd.pl? As far as I could see, I can't. Am I wrong? Otherwise, it would be necessary to introduce the idea of 'headers that are required for testing a header'. Or may be it makes sense to include all successfully tested headers in file config/auto/headers/test_c.in when proceeding to the next header test. BTW, besides the above mentioned, to successfully build parrot, you should move #ifdef PARROT_HAS_HEADER_SYSTYPES # include <sys/types.h> #endif #ifdef PARROT_HAS_HEADER_SYSSOCKET #include <sys/socket.h> #endif before #ifdef PARROT_HAS_HEADER_NIIN # include <netinet/in.h> #endif In this case building and tests are successful: Irresolute (FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE #7) on Tinderbox. Nick.
