Subject: 'Proper' software writing
Hi,
When attempting to fix my own piece of software I've come to the
conclusing that writing somewhat portable software (glibc vs musl) is a
huge PITA.
I've ironed out most issues, but that left me with some questions :
- Why use _BSD_SOURCE and _GNU_SOURCE at all ? What is the argument of
not exposing *ALL* stuff that is in musl ?
- Is there a way to do proper feature detection ? I tried autoscan from
autotools, but the outcome wanted to make me cry. It missed about all
that is important.
Any comments / suggestions ?
Regards,
Igmar
