Functions like get() have been long time deprecated, nobody should use them,
nobody wants to use them, but these dangerous function is still on glibc.
Isn't it time to remove it?

I think this is better left open because you want these functions removed from glibc. It just depends on fixing ISO C and POSIX to remove these dangerous and deprecated functions. -- What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|RESOLVED |REOPENED Resolution|INVALID | http://sources.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=350 ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

It's ISO C11 that removes gets, and if you use current glibc git in C11 (or GNU) mode then gets will not be declared in stdio.h. It is of course still declared for C90, C99 etc. modes, since gets is included in those standards. -- Configure bugmail: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread
