[SAGE] wither NAME_MAX?
Now I'll be the first to admit that Perl programming has really caused
my C language abilities to atrophy, but I'm perplexed...
I've recently been trying to compile a small C program on my Solaris 8
system which uses the (I thought) standard NAME_MAX constant as the
maximum number of chars in a file name (directory entry). I'm including
both limits.h and unistd.h but getting an undefined symbol error during
compilation. I'm using gcc v3.2.
Did I miss a memo from a POSIX committee or something? Can somebody
provide insight on what's going on? The same code compiles fine on
other Unix systems I've tried.
