Thread: mingw compilation problem-> warning: implicit declaration of function `bzero'

hi,
this is not really a postgres issue.

i am trying to compile a trigger function under MINGW32. its giving the
said warning. the call of bzero is

 bzero(data, sizeof(AuditData));

$  gcc --version
gcc.exe (GCC) 3.4.2 (mingw-special)
Copyright (C) 2004 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

the code compiles fine under linux gcc (version not sure)

can anyone please suggest how to prevent this warning.

bzero() is long obsolete, and was never officially standard AFAIK.
Use memset() instead:

    memset(data, 0, sizeof(AuditData));
