>Description:
We tried to compile the source distribution of MySQL on Solaris 2.5.1
with our compilers from Sun (release 4.2). Everything went fine with
the exception of sql/mysqld.cc that uses gethostname() without
having a prototype for it.
Prototypes for gethostname() are
nowhere available in the include files below /usr/include, so
you have to add either in some include file of your own or directly
to sql/mysqld.cc:
extern "C" int gethostname(char *name, int namelen);
>How-To-Repeat:
On Solaris 2.5.1:
CC=cc CXX=CC ./configure && make
>Fix:
Just add ``extern "C" int gethostname(char *name, int namelen);''
at a convenient location that becomes effective for sql/mysqld.cc.
