[libmicrohttpd] MinGW Undefined reference to _win_tsearch

[Andre Colomb]

Hi again!

I just ran into another problem with my build of MHD version 0.4.2 
(MinGW GCC 3.4.5):

libtool: link: gcc -shared  .libs/connection.o .libs/reason_phrase.o 
.libs/daemon.o .libs/internal.o .libs/memorypool.o .libs/postprocessor.o 
.libs/response.o   -L/z/src/mhd-build/pthreads/Pre-built.2/lib 
-L/z/src/mhd-build/plibc-0.1.4/src/.libs 
-L/z/src/mhd-build/libintl-0.14.4-lib/lib 
/z/src/mhd-build/plibc-0.1.4/src/.libs/libplibc.dll.a -lole32 -luuid 
-lcomdlg32 -lgdi32 -lws2_32 -lintl -lpthreadGC2 
-Wl,--export-all-symbols   -o .libs/libmicrohttpd-5.dll 
-Wl,--enable-auto-image-base -Xlinker --out-implib -Xlinker 
.libs/libmicrohttpd.dll.a
Creating library file: .libs/libmicrohttpd.dll.a
.libs/daemon.o:daemon.c:(.text+0x1b3): undefined reference to `_win_tsearch'
.libs/daemon.o:daemon.c:(.text+0x2a7): undefined reference to `_win_tfind'
.libs/daemon.o:daemon.c:(.text+0x31a): undefined reference to `_win_tdelete'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

It appears that those three functions were added to MHD's version of 
plibc.h between 0.4.1 and 0.4.2. However PlibC upstream's version of 
that file does not define these symbols. Therefore, neither the 
precompiled nor the current stable libplibc-1.DLL export these three 
functions.

Nils, I see that you added this functionality to libmicrohttpd's plibc.h 
in SVN revision 8359. However, the file revision was not changed (1.46). 
So where can I find the corresponding implementation for these 
functions? Or does MHD even need them? It would be nice to have a PlibC 
stable release to work with the new libmicrohttpd version 0.4.2.

Please contact me if you need further details concerning this build problem.

Regards,
André
