# =========================================================================== # https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf-archive/ax_lib_socket_nsl.html # =========================================================================== # # SYNOPSIS # # AX_LIB_SOCKET_NSL # # DESCRIPTION # # This macro figures out what libraries are required on this platform to # link sockets programs. # # The common cases are not to need any extra libraries, or to need # -lsocket and -lnsl. We need to avoid linking with libnsl unless we need # it, though, since on some OSes where it isn't necessary it will totally # break networking. Unisys also includes gethostbyname() in libsocket but # needs libnsl for socket(). # # LICENSE # # Copyright (c) 2008 Russ Allbery # Copyright (c) 2008 Stepan Kasal # Copyright (c) 2008 Warren Young # # Copying and distribution of this file, with or without modification, are # permitted in any medium without royalty provided the copyright notice # and this notice are preserved.
