swscanf in 11i

[Srimalik]

Is "swscanf" available in 11i?
On my machine the linker fails to find this.

Another function which I am unable to locate on 11i getspnam_r.

Shalom,

Some research might be in order here.

What OS release do you have? This doc says that both are in the Sep 2005 11i v1

Hi:

First, 'swscanf' and 'getspnam' are C-library funtions. If you consult the manpages you will find wich header files you need to include. That would answer your question:

http://docs.hp.com/en/hpuxman_pages.html

Too, "11i" describes either/variously 11.11, 11.23 and 11.31. Be specific.

Thanks JRF

I think we use 11i for 11.11.

Anyways, I was wrong because I assumed that I am compiling on 11.11 but its 11.00.
did uname on a different system by mistake :-(

I am on 11.00

In the reference manuals I couldn't find the man pages for 11.00

Thanks

11.00 is out of support and may not have the libraries.

This is a missing software problem.

Or perhaps SHLIB_PATH is not set correctly in the environment.

Hi (again):

The 11.0 manpages live here:

http://docs.hp.com/en/B2355-90683/index.html

...but I don't see either library mentioned. Formatted wide character support has received considerable more attention in recent times and releases.

This is in libsec.sl on 11.11. Only getspnam is there on 11.00.

>I think we use 11i for 11.11.

That's not what marketing thinks. :-)
That's why you should always use the numbers.

I was away from the internet for a few days.

Got an old document which has a set of patches mentioned which gets rid of the error.

PHCO_26111 (libc header file patch) PHCO_29959 (Pthread library patch) PHKL_21360, PHKL_28766, PHSS_22653 (libcl patch)
PHSS_26262 (ld patch)
PHSS_26320 (asm patch)
PHCO_28425 (libc patch)
PHSS_26945 (aC++ -AA runtime libraries patch)
PHSS_33034 (ld patch)
PHSS_33902 (libcl patch)


I didn't get time to find out which of the above patches have the function.

Shall read the patch docs for each patch and post the findings here.

I don't see how. Neither swscanf nor getspnam* are in the last libc or libc header patches: PHCO_33609 PHCO_32453
