Hi Nico,
Can you provide more explanation on below? I have't touched C/C++ for quite
some time and I really forgot what extern "C" is for. I included it here only
because it's also in gssapi.h and I thought I should make the declaration and
implementation consistent.
The getenv line compiles fine, and I am using VS2017.
And I don't intend to make this C.
So what's the formal way to do all these?
Thanks,
Max
