RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Chris Cheney 2017-05-24 16:25:56 UTC
Jasper worked fine with 0:1.900.1-16.el6_6.3 but no longer works after update to 0:1.900.1-21.el6_9

Simple reproducer

#include <iostream>
#include <jasper/jasper.h>
using namespace std;

int main ()
{
  cout << "Hello World!";
  return 0;
}

# g++ test.cpp
In file included from /usr/include/jasper/jasper.h:77,
                 from test.cpp:2:
/usr/include/jasper/jas_math.h: In function ‘bool jas_safe_size_mul(size_t, size_t, size_t*)’:
/usr/include/jasper/jas_math.h:143: error: ‘SIZE_MAX’ was not declared in this scope
/usr/include/jasper/jas_math.h: In function ‘bool jas_safe_size_add(size_t, size_t, size_t*)’:
/usr/include/jasper/jas_math.h:170: error: ‘SIZE_MAX’ was not declared in this scope

Comment 2 Chris Cheney 2017-05-24 16:39:46 UTC
Apparently compiling with the -std=c++0x fixes the problem, did one of the security patches include newer than default standards code?

Comment 3 Josef Ridky 2017-05-25 06:46:10 UTC
Problem is in stdint.h header file due this statement:

/* The ISO C99 standard specifies that in C++ implementations these
   macros should only be defined if explicitly requested.  */
#if !defined __cplusplus || defined __STDC_LIMIT_MACROS

Compiling with g++ -D__STDC_LIMIT_MACROS -D__STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS foo.cpp will fix this issue.

Comment 4 Tomas Hoger 2017-05-25 10:13:14 UTC
Would we fix this by:

#ifndef SIZE_MAX
#define SIZE_MAX ((size_t) - 1)
#endif

added to jas_math.h after:

#include <stdint.h>

possibly inside of:

#ifdef __cplusplus

?
