Yes, I will if I do anything at all. I have already mentioned that the
current ip.h and tcp.h are empty. But they are there to overwrite mine.

I asked whether there are any policies on adopting other header files (open
source), but no one answered. By the way, Linux includes the BSD header too.

Sorry but SUSv2 says nothing about the struct definitions. Or at least I
cannot get any meaningful search results.

I know what a patch is. But I would like to ask, plan, and do. It is really
painful to learn to first do and then ask.

Ok.  In that case we'll have to make do with the Berkeley code.  Just
include the license info in your patch.

I guess it depends on where you want to place the pain.  If you'd
submitted a patch and mentioned that you'd searched the SUSv2 without
finding anything, the patch probably would have gone in already.  You
have mentioned several times that you've incorporated some changes in
your local tree so the act of doing a 'cvs diff -up' should not cause
too much pain.  That just leaves writing a Changelog which you'd have to
do regardless.

You could have sent email to cygwin-patches with the patch and the
ChangeLog and your change would have been in by now, after (from
experience) two or three mail messages telling you that your ChangeLog
was incorrect.

What I'm trying to do is cut down on 27 messages saying

"Why doesn't cygwin have this functionality???"

"It seems to me that this should work!!!"

"Did I mention that it works for me???"

when all that is required is a patch and a ChangeLog.

Re: ip.h & tcp.h

[Wu Yongwei]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1202 bytes --]

ChangeLog: BSD-style header files ip.h, tcp.h, and udp.h are added, which
include definitions for IP, TCP, and UDP packet header structures.


Positions:
* ip.h.diff is against /usr/include/netinet/ip.h
* tcp.h.diff is against /usr/include/netinet/tcp.h
* udp.h should be added to /usr/include/netinet
* ip.h in /usr/include/cygwin contains only a comment and I suppose it could
be dropped.

You DO NOT "simply supply" anything.  I suggested that you supply a
patch, as I have done repeatedly in the past.  I gave you the URL that
explains what you need to do.

If you are going to be copying directly from some other file, then of
course there are licensing issues.

You should just adapt whatever you need from the Single UNIX
Specification.

I'll leave it to the collective wisdom of this mailing list to help you
on your painful road of enlightenment with regard to submitting a patch.
Your last effort was a good first try but you still have a ways to go.

Re: ip.h & tcp.h

[Wu Yongwei]

Thank you for all the responses, even the one telling me not to SHOUT. A
message is better than nothing, and I shouted because it seemed no one
noticed my message.

But I am not here to argue. I ask. Should I simply supply the ip.h, tcp.h,
and udp.h here? I did not because I am not sure about the licence issue. And
I asked first.

Maybe I should state again that using the BSD files I successfully built my
Linux project on Windows. It uses BSD-style TCP and UDP struct definition.

Best regards,

Wu Yongwei

No.  IIRC, this caused problems.  See the following:

RE: ip.h & tcp.h

[Robinow, David]

  Well, I'm somewhat to blame for this situation.
   See  http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2000-09/msg00010.html

 Is the suggestion of "include <winsock.h>" reasonable?

No reason to shout.

Re: ip.h & tcp.h

[Wu Yongwei]

Um, no one willing to answer?

OK, I am changing my request now. CAN CYGWIN DROP IP.H AND TCP.H IN
DISTRIBUTION FOR NOW?

Reasons:

1. They are empty and so they do not help. They may even frustrate users
because it is more difficult to find the cause from a lot of parse errors
than a simple "cannot find xxx.h" or so.

2. They harms. I have put new ip.h and tcp.h under /usr/include/netinet to
ease compilation of *NIX code. But they will be overwritten sometimes by
updating my Cygwin installation.

Best regards,

Wu Yongwei

ip.h & tcp.h

[Wu Yongwei]

I noticed that these two header files in /usr/include/netinet is really
missing. I have been using the ones from FreeBSD and that fit very well. I
just need to add the following lines to the beginning of ip.h:

/* Added by Wu Yongwei */
#ifndef LITTLE_ENDIAN
#define LITTLE_ENDIAN   1234
#define BIG_ENDIAN      4321
#endif
#ifndef BYTE_ORDER
#define BYTE_ORDER      LITTLE_ENDIAN
#endif

Could Cygwin just use the modified FreeBSD files, or are there any other
considerations? I don't think there are any licence issues -- it only asks
for an acknowledgement in ads. (BTW, udp.h is good, too.)

Best regards,

Wu Yongwei
