Hi,
I'm testing Boost with Comeau C/C++ frontent which, as far as I found, does not support mixing C++ and C99 modes. So, compiling Boost.Test library fails because ::snprintf can not be found [1].
Would it make sense to remove use of snprintf?
I'd like to continue using snprintf. Can please provide any kind of workaround?
Gennadiy, I've prepared a simple workaround for missing snprintf and vsnprintf functions. Patch attached to the ticket [1] Due to the fact that these functions are used not only in Boost.Test, I thought it may be a good idea Boost.Config gives some hints about their availability, so I also updated boost/config/platform/linux.hpp with two definitions for Linux && Comeau # define BOOST_NO_SNPRINTF # define BOOST_NO_VSNPRINTF I have very little knowledge about internals of Boost.Config, so I'm not sure if that is proper approach. By the way, I also submitted new ticket [2] with small patch that enables POSIX/SVID support for Comeau toolset. To summary, these two patches fix the related problems, however I found some further issues which I'm investigating, and hopefully, patching.
