[nv-l] AIX 4.3.3 ML10 NetView 5.1.3 ov_types.h inttypes.h conflict using Visual Age

["Allison, Jason \(JALLISON\)" <JALLISON@arinc.com>]

This really isn't the place for this, but google will help out someone who might be looking for it.  Please note dated NetView and AIX versions.

"/usr/include/OV/ov_types.h", line 35.17: 1506-334 (S) Identifier int8 has already been defined on line
622 of "/usr/include/sys/inttypes.h".
"/usr/include/OV/ov_types.h", line 65.25: 1506-334 (S) Identifier int64 has already been defined on line
 629 of "/usr/include/sys/inttypes.h".

Notes:

When moving from version Visual Age 4.4.c to 5.0.c and ML level 10 which looks to move inttypes.h version 1.9.1.1 eventually to 1.9.1.2, and /usr/OV/include/OV/ov_types.h is a dependency, passing additional C_FLAGS symbols to cc seem to correct the issue:

C_FLAGS = $(C_FLAGS) -D_INT64_ -D_OV_PREDEFINED_TYPES

This seems to be a compiler issue as the diffs in inttypes don’t show anything earth shattering.  It could be some other ML10 difference, but I didn’t take it any farther than this.

YMMV
