After running autoupdate (GNU Autoconf 2.71), i see in configure.ac: m4_warn([obsolete], [Update your code to rely only on HAVE_SYS_TIME_H, then remove this warning and the obsolete code below it. All current systems provide time.h; it need not be checked for. Not all systems provide sys/time.h, but those that do, all allow you to include it and time.h simultaneously.])dnl AC_CHECK_HEADERS_ONCE([sys/time.h]) # Obsolete code to be removed. if test $ac_cv_header_sys_time_h = yes; then AC_DEFINE([TIME_WITH_SYS_TIME],[1],[Define to 1 if you can safely include both <sys/time.h> and <time.h>. This macro is obsolete.]) fi # End of obsolete code. Currently, the source code has these stylized blocks: #ifdef TIME_WITH_SYS_TIME # include <sys/time.h> # include <time.h> #else # if HAVE_SYS_TIME_H # include <sys/time.h> # else # include <time.h> # endif #endif My question is: To upgrade, which is preferred, (a) or (b)? (a) #if HAVE_SYS_TIME_H # include <sys/time.h> #else # include <time.h> #endif (b) #if HAVE_SYS_TIME_H # include <sys/time.h> #endif #include <time.h> The difference is #include <time.h> is unconditional in (b), which is OK according to my reading of the warning message above. (Thus, my guess is (b).) -- Thien-Thi Nguyen ----------------------------------------------- (defun responsep (query) ; (2021) Software Libero (pcase (context query) ; = Dissenso Etico (`(technical ,ml) (correctp ml)) ...)) 748E A0E8 1CB8 A748 9BFA --------------------------------------- 6CE4 6703 2224 4C80 7502
