[Live-devel] sin_len on *BSD not initialized

[Boris Nikolaus]

Hi,

I just tried running vobStreamer on FreeBSD and encountered that
the sin_len field of sockaddr_in is not initialized by the
libraries, making the programs fail on FreeBSD.

To make the code runnable on *BSD, I suggest that a
"HAVE_SOCKADDR_LEN" flag should be defined in the config*.h files
for appropriate systems and that

    #ifdef HAVE_SOCKADDR_LEN
    address.sin_len = sizeof(address);
    #endif

is added to the corresponding code places (which can be found by
looking for sin_family).

Is there anyone who can make the patches to the code?

Thanks in advance,
Boris
