Description Robert Millan 2009-08-28 18:42:17 UTC 
Created attachment 28994 [details] [review]
use xgethostname()

dbus-c++ fails to build on GNU/kFreeBSD (and probably FreeBSD as well) due to unconditional use of HOST_NAME_MAX.

Attached patch resolves the problem by removing the need for max hostname length assumption.  Instead of using gethostname(), one just needs to use xgethostname().

Note xgethostname.c is obtained from Gnulib (http://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib/)

dbus-c++ <http://sourceforge.net/projects/dbus-cplusplus/> has its own bug
tracker and is no longer hosted here. Please open a bug over there.
