hi,guys
I'm porting some code to vxworks,,but when I rebuild the vxworks image,
it tells me that
undefined reference to `gethostbyname'
undefined reference to `gethostbyaddr'

I don't know wether the are some file similar with netdb.h in vxworks(I search them but no result),
anybody can give me any hint?

the manuals for details...

Hi,
The functions are hostGetByName( ) and hostGetByAddr( ) . Both of them are
defined is hostLib.h.
Here hostLib is the library for these functions.First check the function
prototype.Then Please verify whether your vxworks image contains the libary
(host lib).Before any of the routines in this hostLib library module can be
used, it must be initialized by hostTblInit( ). This is done automatically
if the configuration macro INCLUDE_NET_INIT is defined in config.h.
