Hello,

I have errors :
stdio.h(358) : error C3163: '_vsnprintf': attributes inconsistent with previous
declaration

Microsoft decided to define vsnprintf in VS 2008 release.
Many libraries, such as WinPcap, defined vsnprintf function by themselves
because vsnprintf does not exist in previous versions of stdio.h.

'vsnprintf'
'_vsnprintf'

Can you update OpenLDAP ?

Thanks in advance,

Regards,

You must change in configure and \include\PORTABLE.H :

#define vsnprintf _vsnprintf

with

#if _MSC_VER < 1500  // 1500 == VC++ 9.0
#define vsnprintf _vsnprintf
 #endif

or

 #if _MSC_VER < 1500
#define vsnprintf _vsnprintf
 #endif

 Sorry for issues ITS#6313 at ITS#6318 but I have an error :
"The system encountered a fatal error
can't get info in find_id
The last error code was: No such file or directory"

Thanks in advance,

Regards,

Neustradamus

You reported this issue against 2.2.16, which is several years obsolete.
(Current version is 2.4.19.) The configure script has checked for vsnprintf
and _vsnprintf for many years; it will not setup this #define if it doesn't
need to.

Closing this ITS.
