Thread: Darwin stuff is getting deprecated
With the latest Apple developers' tools, I get some warnings that weren't there before: dynloader.c: In function 'pg_dlsym': dynloader.c:44: warning: 'NSIsSymbolNameDefined' is deprecated (declared at /usr/include/mach-o/dyld.h:150) dynloader.c:46: warning: 'NSLookupAndBindSymbol' is deprecated (declared at /usr/include/mach-o/dyld.h:158) postmaster.c: In function 'PostmasterMain': postmaster.c:779: warning: 'DNSServiceRegistrationCreate' is deprecated (declared at /usr/include/DNSServiceDiscovery/DNSServiceDiscovery.h:114) Anyone want to look into this and see what we're supposed to do instead? The postmaster.c message is in the USE_BONJOUR code. There was already some discussion about how we were using an obsolete Bonjour API and we ought to rewrite to support using Bonjour on non-Darwin platforms. Perhaps Apple is now using a compatible API? regards, tom lane
The regular dlfcn family of functions are now properly implemented on Darwin (10.4+). Re: Zeroconf- Avahi is API+ABI compatible with the Apple API, so its use would be preferable on Linux (for cross-platform considerations). http://avahi.org/browser/trunk/avahi-compat-libdns_sd [Warning: Avahi->GPL] -M On Sep 28, 2006, at 17:02 , Tom Lane wrote: > With the latest Apple developers' tools, I get some warnings that > weren't there before: > > dynloader.c: In function 'pg_dlsym': > dynloader.c:44: warning: 'NSIsSymbolNameDefined' is deprecated > (declared at /usr/include/mach-o/dyld.h:150) > dynloader.c:46: warning: 'NSLookupAndBindSymbol' is deprecated > (declared at /usr/include/mach-o/dyld.h:158) > postmaster.c: In function 'PostmasterMain': > postmaster.c:779: warning: 'DNSServiceRegistrationCreate' is > deprecated (declared at /usr/include/DNSServiceDiscovery/ > DNSServiceDiscovery.h:114) > > Anyone want to look into this and see what we're supposed to do > instead? > > The postmaster.c message is in the USE_BONJOUR code.

My guess is that we are going to have to live with the warnings for 8.2 and save this issue for 8.3. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tom Lane wrote: > With the latest Apple developers' tools, I get some warnings that > weren't there before: > > dynloader.c: In function 'pg_dlsym': > dynloader.c:44: warning: 'NSIsSymbolNameDefined' is deprecated (declared at /usr/include/mach-o/dyld.h:150) > dynloader.c:46: warning: 'NSLookupAndBindSymbol' is deprecated (declared at /usr/include/mach-o/dyld.h:158) > postmaster.c: In function 'PostmasterMain': > postmaster.c:779: warning: 'DNSServiceRegistrationCreate' is deprecated (declared at /usr/include/DNSServiceDiscovery/DNSServiceDiscovery.h:114) > > Anyone want to look into this and see what we're supposed to do instead? > > The postmaster.c message is in the USE_BONJOUR code.
