On my BSDI 2.0 system I have in /usr/include/sys/resource.h:

| #define RLIMIT_NOFILE 8 /* number of open files */

resource.h is included if BSD is defined, and "RLIMIT_NOFILE" is only
reached if BSD is defined, so we have a system out there defining
BSD > 0 but not RLIMIT_NOFILE. I also see in resource.h:

| #define RLIMIT_OFILE RLIMIT_NOFILE /* compat */

What OS is this problem on?

Sheesh, time to write that bug report form handler.

damn, it doesn't seem to be set for NeXT.

On a SunOs unix, it's set to 6,

#define RLIMIT_NOFILE 6 /* maximum descriptor index + 1 */

Not sure if it's a good idea to just add that, but you can try, maybe even
compile with -DRLIMIT_NOFILE=6

NeXT. I have access to a couple (one old black-hardware, and one HP-715)

% grep RLIMIT_ /usr/include/bsd/sys/resource.h
#define RLIMIT_CPU 0 /* cpu time in milliseconds */
#define RLIMIT_FSIZE 1 /* maximum file size */
#define RLIMIT_DATA 2 /* data size */
#define RLIMIT_STACK 3 /* stack size */
#define RLIMIT_CORE 4 /* core file size */
#define RLIMIT_RSS 5 /* resident set size */


Maybe I should start doing compilation checks on NeXT too. Oh gawd.

It may be more appropriate to use ulimit() on the NeXT. HPsUX, SunOS,
and other BSD variants all seem to have a complete setrlimit function,
but I fully expected there to be an exception. Kind of surprised
that NeXT is defining BSD... But then, I've never seen a NeXT.

I'll see if anyone has posted a fix. The setrlimit code is selfcontained.
It would be easy to comment it out for the NeXT.

This seems to be from patch 16_0.8.12. but I belive it does have
a clause around it though. He must be declaring BSD somewhere
along the line.

From the -DNEXT, I would say, it's a NEXT. Do NEXT systems use
BSD calls?
