Thread: declare function inside fork()

Absolutely not my friend. Here is the exact line

sprintf(messg,"Can't unlink %s",sckt);

Where is the extra argument???

sprintf(messg,"Can't unlink %s",sckt);

Careful on those, MK27. Its a mistake all of us can easily make. Remember that printf() works with the output buffer. sprint() is the one that prints to strings.

I bet.

Code:

Function: int sprintf (char *s, const char *template, ...)
    This is like printf, except that the output is stored in the character array s 
instead of written to a stream. A null character is written to mark the end of the string.

Does this mean I am a prisoner of GNU forever?

ps. it wasn't a scoping issue

I didn't understand that there was one.

Well, obviously there is one since you get a warning?
And btw master5001, you know there's an edit button, right?

No. For example, my compiler (gcc 4.1.2) gives an "assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast" warning whenever strcasestr
is used, no matter how -- guarrenteed. That's an erroneous warning.

(master5001 knows this and would fancy himself a mindf#@er)

Yeah but I was hungry and ready to head home... So I figured people would overlook my spamming.

Not at all. sprintf() is a C standard function. strcasestr() on the otherhand is a GNU extention. I use it anyway... Microsoft provides a lot of functions similar to the GNU extentions that one can simply #define as the GNU names of the functions. I know that is not your issue, MK27. But there are a lot of M$ folks floating around.

Can you post an example of code that gives you that error reguardless? Por favor.

[edit]Hey, are you trying to pass a socket as a string? That would issue a warning too. Though typically it would not be this specific warning.[/edit]

found = strcasestr(content, fthis);

But gcc is a GNU compiler...

A filename that aspires to sockethood.

And how are content, fthis and found declared?
