All,
I am having troubles compiling a boost package due to conflicting declarations:
/usr/include/w32api/winsock2.h:635:33: error: declaration of C function ‘int
gethostname(char*, int)’ conflicts with
/usr/include/sys/unistd.h:238:6: error: previous declaration ‘int
gethostname(char*, size_t)’ here
Can that get fixed?
You want to have a look at the configuration for the Boost package you're
building. It should not be including things from the w32api if it's
building for Cygwin.
If you aren't aware, Cygwin has a Boost package already. If you're
looking for a more current version, you may find you have better luck
using the build scripts for the current Cygwin package as a basis if
you prefer not to wait for the Cygwin maintainer to release an update.
