Well I build a debugable version of imapd and did a little debugging
with gdb and this is odd. I'm dying at gettimeofday in the function
rfc822_timezone which gdb shows me as:
void rfc822_timezone (char *s,void *t)
{
struct timezone d;
struct tm *tm;
int hr;
gettimeofday(NULL, &d);
hr = d.tz_minuteswest / 60;
tm = (struct tm *)t;
if (tm->tm_isdst) {
hr++;
}
sprintf(s + strlen(s), " (%+04d)", (hr * 100));
}
I can find no man page for gettimeofday in Cygwin! And I can't seem to
even call it properly:
#include <time.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main (void) {
struct timezone d;
printf ("Calling gettimeofday\n");
gettimeofday (NULL, &d);
printf ("Returned from gettimeofday\n");
}
$ gcc foo.c
foo.c: In function `main':
foo.c:4: storage size of `d' isn't known
So how the hell did it get compiled into imapd this way?!? And how does
on call gettimeofday in Cygwin?
Finally I tried:
$ grep gettimeofday /usr/include/*
/usr/include/_syslist.h:#define _gettimeofday gettimeofday
/usr/include/reent.h:extern int _gettimeofday_r _PARAMS ((struct _reent
*, struct timeval *tp, struct timezone *tzp));
Any ideas?
