- [ This came in with Newsgroups: comp.std.unix,comp.std.c
- but I've recently made a policy of not cross-posting discussions,
- so I'm putting it only in comp.std.unix. -mod ]

- (I hope that you will all excuse my (nearly total) ignorance of current
- standards efforts.)
-
- As part of my work on my "protoize" tool, I need to obtain complete sets
- of function prototypes for the library functions available on various
- UNIX systems.
-
- Rather than use a multitude of various sets of prototypes (each of which
- may be "correct" only for one specific individual implementation of UNIX)
- it seems that the sensible thing to do would be to use one single POSIX set
- of library function prototypes. I'd like to do that, but the problem is
- that I need to obtain such a set (on-line) somewhere, and I don't know
- where to begin. Can anyone point me at a set of (on-line) POSIX library
- function prototypes? (I certainly don't want to type them all in by hand
- from POSIX documents!)
-
- Of course I will ultimately have to augment the POSIX prototypes set with
- additional prototypes for specific systems, but for the "core" functions
- (i.e. the ones which are covered by POSIX) I'd like my prototypes to reflect
- what POSIX is doing rather that reflecting any machine-specific local
- variations.
