Regards, Geoff. ---------- Minutes of the 23rd August 2018 Teleconference Austin-xxx Page 1 of 1 Submitted by Geoff Clare, The Open Group. 24th August 2018 Attendees: Mark Ziegast, SHware Systems Dev. Nick Stoughton, USENIX, ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 22 OR Don Cragun, IEEE PASC OR David Clissold, IBM Geoff Clare, The Open Group Martin Rehak, Oracle Eric Blake, Red Hat Apologies: Andrew Josey, The Open Group * General news No news * Outstanding actions (Please note that this section has been flushed to shorten the minutes - to locate the previous set of outstanding actions, look to the minutes from 9 March 2018 and earlier) * Current Business Bug 1077: Recommend support for wide-character regcomp and regexec and/or specify multi-byte behavior OPEN http://austingroupbugs.net/bug_view_page.php?bug_id=1077 Andrew has completed the action to ping his Apple contact and is awaiting a reply. Bug 1122: POSIX should include gettext() and friends OPEN http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1122 Left open as an action is still in progress to flesh out a complete proposal. Bug 1123: Problematic specification of execution environment for word expansions OPEN http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1123 Left open as the mailing list discussion is still going on. Bug 1126: tcsetpgrp() ERRORS section missing EINTR. Accepted http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1126 This item is tagged for TC3-2008. Bug 1127: sys/socket.h inclusion of sys/uio.h. Rejected http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1127 The standard clearly states that the entire contents of <sys/uio.h> can be made visible, and this applies even when compiled with _POSIX_C_SOURCE=200809L. This was the intent and we do not see any reason to change this requirement at this time. Implementations are required to define struct iovec when <sys/socket.h> is included. This can be done directly in <sys/socket.h> or by inclusion of <sys/uio.h>. Bug 1128: Where is the ',' (comma) operator? Accepted as Marked http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1128 This item is tagged for TC3-2008. On 2016 edition page 2332 line 74119 section 1.1.2.1 add a small-font note: Note: the comma operator (section 6.5.17 of the ISO C standard) is intentionally not included in the table. It need not be supported by implementations. Bug 1108: LONG_MIN must be <= -2147483648 OPEN http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1108 We reopened this bug following discussion on the mailing list about the abs() changes. Initial discussion was inconclusive and we will continue it next time. Next Steps ---------- The next call is on August 30th 2018 (Thursday). Apologies in Advance: None.
