getifaddrs and freeifaddrs not in libc for illumos/solaris 10 #23
Description
Activity
Something like this might work
try: retval = libc.func() except AttributeError as e: if os.uname()[0] == 'SunOS': libc = ctypes.CDLL(ctypes.util.find_library("socket"), use_errno=True) retval = libc.func() else: raise eThanks!
After some time trying to get this to work without any success I gave up and replaced the original function "libc = ctypes.CDLL(ctypes.util.find_library("c"), use_errno=True)" to the one you provided "libc = ctypes.CDLL(ctypes.util.find_library("socket"), use_errno=True)".
Hopefully this package gets fixed.

Thanks to everybody involved on this.
Reacted by Jakub StasiakThe fix has been released in 0.1.7 just now.
I'm having some issues on SmartOS (illumos) because getifaddrs and freeifaddrs are not in libc, but in libsocket.
Replacing the ctypes load to socket instead of c makes it work, not sure how to best dynamically select the other one on illumos.
I'm not sure how to only do it when on illumos or solaris 10 though.
