Collisions between newkib and w32api sockets


There are several collisions between newlib and winsock names
These are the ones I know about.

1) The #ifndef _WINSOCK_H guard for BSD int typedefs in the newlib
sys/types needs to be made more specific to prevent header inclusion
order problems.
Consider what happens here:
#include winsock.h
#include windows.h 

winsock.h is included and defines _WINSOCK_H
winsock.h then includes >
	windows.h >
		windef.h >
			winnt.h >
				 string.h >
					sys/reent.h >
						time.h >
							sys/types.h
which sees the _WINSOCK_H define and skips the BSD int typedefs
(u_char, u_short,etc) But ... sys/types defines _SYS_TYPES_H which
makes winsock.h also skip the BSD typedefs later on. The types are
not defined anywhere.	

2. fd_set. The same chain of included headers from windows.h can also
cause the wrong fd_set definitions for winsock interface, but only in
the case where windows.h is included *before* winsock.h.
sys/types is included before winsock.h (ie before _WINSOCK_H is
defined), so the sys/types definitions take precedence. One way to
prevent the sys/types definitions of fd_set is to use Win32_Winsock (or
similar macro that
signifies intent to use winsock interface), rather than _WINSOCK_H as a
guard. 

3. gethostname. Both winsock[2].h and the newlib sys/unistd.h declare
gethostname. The w32api version is __stdcall, the unistd.h one is not
and also differs in the second parameter (unsigned int rather than
int).
IMO, if we want w32api for sockets, the  function in
winsock.h/libwsock32.a should be used.

While I'm at I'd change the macro name Win32_Winsock to something a bit
more consistent with standard: eg  __USE_W32_SOCKETS_ but that is just
my preference.

Mutually dependent patches to newlib and w32api, against winsup cvs,
follow.

I am submitting to mingw project as well for changes to w32api.


Danny

2001-03-10  Danny Smith <dannysmith@users.sourceforge.net>
	* libc/include/sys/types.h (BSD int typedefs): Guard with
	_BSDTYPES_DEFINED rather than _WINSOCK_H
	(fd_set): Add !defined __USE_W32_SOCKETS to guard;
	define _SYS_TYPES_FD_SET.
	* libc/include/sys/unistd.h (gethostname): don't declare if
	defined  (_WINSOCK_H) || defined (__USE_W32_SOCKETS)

	
ChangeLog for w32api

2001-03-10  Danny Smith <dannysmith@users.sourceforge.net>
	* include/winsock.h (_SYS_TYPES_H macro guard for int types): Remove;
	use	only _BSDTYPES_DEFINED macro now defined in newlib sys/types.h.
	(SYS_TYPES_H macro guard for fd_set): Replace with_SYS_TYPES_FD_SET
	macro now defined in newlib sys/types.h. Emit warning if defined.
	* include/winsock2.h:As per winsock.h.
	* include/windows.h (Win32_Winsock): Replace with new macros
	__USE_W32_SOCKETS and warn of deprecation.
