spawn.h ?

[bruce bushby]

Hi

Are there any suggestions for compiling an application that uses "#include
<spawn.h>" with uClibc?

I've been trying to add rabbitMQ C client as a "buildroot" application
however the compile keep failing due to "missing spawn.h"

I've tried all the uClib thread options including Native POSIX threading
with the daily snapshot.

This is the error message:

/opt/buildroot/output/host/usr/bin/arm-unknown-linux-uclibcgnueabi-gcc

compilation terminated.

I did some searching and get the feeling that posix_spawn it not supported
... or t depends on (SPN ?)


Would the application need to recoded to work with uClibc?
