Description Glen Foster 2000-01-13 15:14:08 UTC
VSX-PCTS finds a problem with <stdio.h> - similar to defect #8443.  The
test expects to see definitions for "stdin", "stdout", and "stderr" when
#including <stdio.h> and compiling with the following 2 option sets:

	(a) -DPOSIX_C_SOURCE=199506
	(b) -DPOSIX_C_SOURCE=199506 -DPOSIX_SOURCE

Appropriate lines from testing journal are as follows:

Comment 1 Cristian Gafton 2000-01-14 20:38:59 UTC
probably teh test suite expects to see themm defined as constants, but there is
no standard requiring that.

Anyway, this works ofr me also:

alien (gafton):~/src/glibc/proto>cat proto.c
#define POSIX_C_SOURCE 199506
#include <stdio.h>

alien (gafton):~/src/glibc/proto>gcc -E proto.c -c | \
	grep "stdin\|stderr\|stdout"
extern struct _IO_FILE_plus _IO_2_1_stdin_;
extern struct _IO_FILE_plus _IO_2_1_stdout_;
extern struct _IO_FILE_plus _IO_2_1_stderr_;
extern FILE *stdin;
extern FILE *stdout;
extern FILE *stderr;
