stdfn.h: error: conflicting types for 'memcopy' and 'sys_errlist' on Cygwin build

[Tatsuro M. <tma...@ya...>]

Hello

This is probably an issue that is specific to the Cygwin.

At compiling src/boundary.c I have met errors.

../../gnuplot/src/stdfn.h:67:8: error: conflicting types for 'memcpy'
../../gnuplot/src/stdfn.h:171:14: error: conflicting types for 'sys_errlist'

How is it possible that cygwin does not provide memcpy()?

Anyhow, the correct typing for memcpy is:

   void *memcpy(void *,  const void *,  size_t);

Actually, you met them in almost every single source file.  Which is 
understandable, given that the conflict is in stdfn.h, which is included

It's not.  Cygwin does of course provide it.  The error messages are 
caused by the provided declaration conflicting with gnuplot's internal 
fall-back.

The problem here is that configure somehow managed to not find the 
declaration, although it most definitely is there.  We need to see 
Tatsuro's config.log to find out what went wrong.

Hans.

Thanks for the reply.

Now discussion is made in the Cygwin ML.

The origin of the issue does not lie on the Cygwin but on gnuplot.

So I am back here.

See:
https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2016-04/msg00202.html

Why adding 

LIBCERF_CFLAGS='-I/usr/local/include' \ 
LIBCERF_LIBS='-L/usr/local/lib -lcerf' \ 

flags affect configure process those are not related to libcerf ?

I have completely forgotten to build and install libcerf again.
Sorry for the noise.

However, why 

LIBCERF_CFLAGS='-I/usr/local/include' \ 
LIBCERF_LIBS='-L/usr/local/lib -lcerf' \ 

flags affect checking functions that are not related libcerf ?

I'm semi-blindly guessing.

If configure[.ac] finds out that cerf should be used, it adds
LIBCERF_CFLAGS to CFLAGS and LIBCERF_LIBS to LDFLAGS. Those CFLAGS and
LIBS are then used for all the remaining tests.

If that is indeed the case, I believe there are two "bugs":

- gnuplot should figure out that libcerf is not working and not add
those flags at all
- the flags should be added to the globas set of flags at the end, not
at the beginning of the configure script

Thank you for your reply

On ubuntu flags

LIBCERF_CFLAGS='-I/usr/local/include' \
LIBCERF_LIBS='-L/usr/local/lib -lcerf' \

are not required so that this might be an issue of my pkg-config setting.

However, looking into config.log, I found the following:

****************************************************************
configure:7376: checking for LIBCERF
configure:7384: $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "libcerf"
configure:7387: $? = 0
configure:7402: $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "libcerf"
configure:7405: $? = 0
configure:7481: result: yes

configure:9592: checking for memcpy
configure:9592: gcc -o conftest -g -O2  -I/usr/local/include     -L/usr/local/lib -lcerf   conftest.c -ldl -lm -lcerf  >&5
conftest.c:93:6: warning: conflicting types for built-in function 'memcpy' [enabled by default]
 char memcpy ();
      ^
configure:9592: $? = 0
configure:9592: result: yes
configure:9592: checking for memmove
configure:9592: gcc -o conftest -g -O2  -I/usr/local/include     -L/usr/local/lib -lcerf   conftest.c -ldl -lm -lcerf  >&5



LIBCERF_CFLAGS='-I/usr/local/include  '
LIBCERF_LIBS='-L/usr/local/lib -lcerf  '

****************************************************************

On Ubuntu, pkg-config checks libcerf.
However, "-I/usr/local/include     -L/usr/local/lib -lcerf" is added to the many functions test.

Is the above intended?
