compiling programs with getprpwent (and alike) function on HP UX 10.20

[Charles Xaivier]

Hi

I'm sure this is an easy problem and someone's probably asked this before but if anyone knows the answer please tell me causing it's driving me insane.

Eg.

#include
#include
#include
#include

int main(void)
{
getprpwnam("User");
printf("Hello World!");
return 0;
}

I can compile that no problems in HP UX 11.00 using gcc.

However when I compile it on HP UX 10.20 it doesn't wanna work with gcc or aCC. It works fine using cc -Ae -lsec.

The error I get is
/usr/include/prot.h: 466: to many arguements to function 'struct pr_passwd * getprpwnam()'

I noticed that with the prot.h file in 10.20 the the function prototypes have no arguements for all the getprpwent type functions.

Eg. It's defined as
struct pr_passwd * getprpwnam()

instead of
struct pr_passwd * getprpwnam(const char *name)

Can someone please tell me what I must do to get it to compile (including compiler line options) on 10.20 using aCC or gcc.(Preferable gcc)

Thank you very much.

Found a similar posting in the comp.sys.hp.hpux newsgroup and they suggested try adding -fno-strict-prototype to your gcc line. Don't know what the equivalent (if any) for aCC would be.
