>Description:
The devinfo(3) interface is defined in a header which is not C++ safe, and
will not work properly in a C++ program.
>How-To-Repeat:
Try to compile the following. It won't link, because it assumes the
devinfo symbols should be mangled C++ symbols.
test.cpp:
#include <devinfo.h>
int main()
{
devinfo_init();
return 0;
}
>Fix:
devinfo.h needs __BEGIN_DECLS and >__END_DECLS.
