We were having problems with multiple + threads calling gethostbyname, so we decided the best way to deal + with it was to do it properly, rather than kludge up our code to make + gethostbyname safe. We have found several slightly different + parameter lists for this function, it does not seem to be standard. + The one we used has the linux interface. In RTEMS there was an + existing gethostbyname_r inside a #ifdef _THREAD_SAFE which was NOT + Threadsafe, as this just called gethostbyname. So we have placed all + of the additional code inside the #ifdef _THREAD_SAFE. + 2006-10-30 Joel Sherrill <joel@OARcorp.com> PR 841/rtems |
