[ossec-list] Re: ossec 1.2 failing to compile on Solaris 8

["Serge Dubrouski" <sergeyfd@xxxxxxxxx>]

Deifinition for va_copy on Solaris 8 in stdarg.h looks like that:

/*
 * va_copy is a Solaris extension to provide a portable way to perform
 * a variable argument list ``bookmarking'' function.
 */
#if defined(__EXTENSIONS__) || ((__STDC__ - 0 == 0) && \
        !defined(_POSIX_C_SOURCE) && !defined(_XOPEN_SOURCE))

#define va_copy(to, from)       ((to) = (from))

#endif  /* defined(__EXTENSIONS__) || ((__STDC__ - 0 == 0) && ... ) */


It looks like that #if doesn't work for OSSEC compilation. I was lazy
to do deeper investigation on this problem so I just added

#define va_copy(to, from)       ((to) = (from))

into src/shared/debug_op.c

After that evrything compiled all right.
