Hello,
the attached patch is my first attempt to remove sys/types.h from the
sources and use the types defined in glib.h instead.
There are a few caveats:
asn1.c, packet-snmp.c: I assume that the u_XXX and guXXX types are
equivalent.
gtk/tcp_graph.c (but the types aren't used there anywhere, so
what is going on?)
epan/strutil.h, epan/to_str.c, wiretap/buffer.h have comments like
"#include <winsock2.h> /* to define u_char */"
I may have made some mistakes with the search and replace, although
I've rechecked the diffs (and of course made sure it compiles).
Do any of the standard includes need sys/types.h? The only test I have
done is on a rather new linux system (suse 8.0), so I don't know where
there may be portability problems with what I've done.
Ciao
Jörg
Changelog: <jmayer@xxxxxxxxx>
- Replace all instances of u_XXX types included via sys/types.h by
guXXX included by glib.h.
- Don't include sys/types any more.
- Remove no longer needed HAVE_SYS_TYPES_H from config.in.*

I found out that "pro" means "instead of" (as in proconsul). Now I know
what proactive means.
