Struct Initialization

Hi We are using a code generator for initializing structures with the #define macro. Compiling it with the GCC 2.8.1 (with -ansi) it OK. But when we are using the SUN C 5.0 compiler it screams. Following is a code sample: #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdio.h> typedef struct TEST3 {...

NAME

       libauth - routines for writing nnrpd resolvers and authenticators

SYNOPSIS

	   #include "libauth.h"

	   struct res_info {
	       struct sockaddr *client;
	       struct sockaddr *local;
	       char *clienthostname;
	   };

	   struct auth_info {
	       char *username;
	       char *password;
	   };

	   struct auth_info *get_auth_info(FILE *);
	   struct res_info  *get_res_info (FILE *);

	   void free_auth_info(struct auth_info*);
	   void free_res_info (struct res_info*);

DESCRIPTION

       These functions provide a convenient C frontend to the nnrpd external authentication interface documented in doc/external-auth.	Use of
       this library is not required; in particular, external resolvers and authenticators written in languages other than C will need to implement
       the necessary functionality themselves.

       The get_auth_info() and get_res_info() functions allocate sufficient memory for a struct auth_info or struct res_info and any necessary
       fields, and return a pointer to the struct with the fields filled in from information supplied by nnrpd (the FILE* parameter generally
       should be "stdin").  Both functions return NULL on error.  The caller is responsible for deallocating the memory by using the functions
       below.

       The string fields of both structs are straightforward.  The client and local fields of struct res_info actually point to instances of
       struct sockaddr_in (or struct sockaddr_in6 if IPv6 support is compiled in).

       The free_auth_info() and free_res_info() functions free the struct passed in as argument and all necessary fields.

BUGS

       In many cases, nnrpd provides more information than is normally useful (for example, even when calling an authenticator, the resolver
       information is often provided.)	On the other hand, in certain cases it provides less information than might be expected (for example, if
       nnrpd is reading from stdin rather than a socket).  The implementation is capable of handling at least the first of these issues, but that
       functionality is not exposed in the interface.

       At present, libauth.h and its implementation are located in authprogs/; perhaps they should be moved to include/ and lib/, respectively?
