>Description:
When sys/select.h is included in your souce code, compilation errors
occur. It seems that the structure 'selinfo' (line 44) contains a
reference to pid_t. pid_t has not been defined yet. The following
are the error messages from gcc:
In file included from t.c:1:
/usr/include/sys/select.h:45: parse error before `pid_t'
/usr/include/sys/select.h:45: warning: no semicolon at end of struct or union
/usr/include/sys/select.h:47: parse error before `}'
>How-To-Repeat:
Compile the following code:
#include <sys/select.h>
main ()
{ ; }
>Fix:
Put sys/types.h in sys/select.h or put sys/types.h in your code prior
to sys/select.h
This compiles with out error:
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/select.h>
main ()
{ ; }
