# POSIX
|
||||
|
||||
defines bindings for most posix APIs.
|
||||
|
||||
If a header is added, all of it must be implemented.
|
||||
|
||||
Each platform must define the exact same symbols, different values are allowed, even structs with different non-standard fields.
|
||||
|
||||
APIs part of extensions may be left out completely if one target doesn't implement it.
|
||||
|
||||
APIs with a direct replacement in `core` might not be implemented.
|
||||
|
||||
Macros are emulated with force inlined functions.
|
||||
|
||||
Struct fields defined by the posix standard (and thus portable) are documented with `[PSX]`.

||||

||||

||||
ADD A TEST FOR SIGINFO, one thread signalling and retrieving the signal out of siginfo or something.
|
||||
ADD A TEST FOR wait.h
|
||||
ADD A TEST FOR pthread.
|
||||
ADDD A test for stat.h.
|
||||
ADD A TEST FOR setjmp.h.

/*
|
||||
Bindings for most POSIX APIs.
|
||||
|
||||
APIs that have been left out are due to not being useful,
|
||||
being fully replaced (and better) by other Odin packages,
|
||||
or when one of the targets hasn't implemented the API or option.
|
||||
|
||||
The struct fields that are cross-platform are documented with `[PSX]`.
|
||||
Accessing these fields on one target should be the same on others.
|
||||
Other fields are implementation specific.
|
||||
|
||||
Most macros have been reimplemented in Odin with inlined functions.
