Bug 31048 – strnstr not available on Solaris

• Component: WebCore Misc.
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[[e-mail]]

In the file WebCore/websockets/WebSocketHandshake.cpp in line 255 you make use of strnstr(), which is not available on Solaris. If you can avoid it, WebKit would compile on Solaris.

Here's a suggestion for a patch, but I'm not sure if strstr() really does the same thing as strnstr() was doing before.

This is not the right fix for the problem. We have a portable implementation of strnstr in wtf/StringExtras.h, so what needs to be done is adding Solaris to an #if guarding the implementation.

Please submit patches for review as described in <http://webkit.org/coding/contributing.html> (in this particular case, we actually already have a patch submitted, but it was overlooked, because the contributor failed to set review? flag).
