bindresvport - usage

[hanniball]

Hi,

I am using bindresvport to bind to a ports btwn 0 - 1023. 64 bit hp ux 11.11.

However while linking this into a binary,it showing "Unsatififed symbol bindresvport" .

The linkline has -lc and -lnsl.

It seems the function is defined in libnsl.a but was not exported to libnsl.sl
Is there any way to work around this.
Thanks

The bindresvport() is mentioned in section 8.6.1.1 of the 11.00RelNotes in /usr/share/doc . It say that bindresvport() is among a group of calls removed from libc.2/a and now included in libc.1.

I'm not sure if this completely answers your question, but you might have a look there.

I've always been under the impression that one is not supposed to link -lc explicitly except in very limited circumstances - what happens if you leave-off the -lc and simply rely on -lnsl.

Have you a small test case?
