Solaris Gethostbyname - dns resolving

bm_mne
Hello

I am writing small routine that should resolve URL. Using Solaris 8 box and gcc. I nedd to use 'gethostbyname()' function but after linking, I receive message with linking error.

Does anyone knows which libraries I should include and which gcc option should be used for compiling?

seems to be the same problem as here : http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-bugs/2002-07/msg00196.html
This guy solved his problem by using "cc" instead of gcc.

I never had this problem with gethostbyname, though the last time I coded on Slowaris was using gcc 2.95 and gcc 3.1...so, if you're using a newer version of GCC I can't really speak for why it doesn't work.

What linker options are you passing to GCC to compile it? Sounds a little bit like the linker is resolving the wrong library and linking it. I can see problems happening when you link a non-gnu library and expect it to behave like it's gnu counterpart.
