Description amantellini 2020-02-26 12:49:09 UTC
When I compile a library of my project, I noticed that the symbol event_set_mem_functions is not available in the libevent library.
If I compile libevent in debug mode, I don't have problems.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge libevent
2.create a .c that uses event_Set_mem_functions
3.compile the .c
Actual Results:  
implicit declaration of function event_set_mem_functions

Expected Results:  
no warning and error in the compilation of my code
Comment 1 Jonas Stein gentoo-dev 2020-03-01 10:27:42 UTC
please attach your minimal working example for step 
"2.create a .c that uses event_Set_mem_functions"
this will safe some time for the maintainer.

ok,

I'm trying to compile libparc, that is part of the cicn/hicn projects, a new protocol developed by PARC and now Cisco Systems.
https://wiki.fd.io/view/Cicn
https://wiki.fd.io/view/Hicn

event_set_mem_functions permits to redefine the malloc, the free and the realloc used inside libevent.

https://github.com/FDio/cicn/blob/cframework/master/libparc/parc/algol/internal_parc_Event.c line 85

So, if you install libevent and after
git clone -b cframework/master   https://gerrit.fd.io/r/cicn cframework;
cd cframework/libparc
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make

you have the warning that the symbol event_set_mem_functions is not available in libevent.

when I try to compile the hicn stack I have the error that event_set_mem_functions is not available and the executables are not buildables.


so,

git clone https://github.com/FDio/hicn.git
cd hicn
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
P.s. the dependencies of hicn are libparc, openssl, asio and libconfig

let me know if you need clarifications
p.s. 2
