Error description
While compiling a program which includes j2_inode.h file can get following error message: --------------------------------- "/usr/include/j2/j2_inode.h", line 55.10: 1506-296 (S) #include file <j2/j2_sync.h> not found.............................................. --------------------------------- The j2_inode.h file has a line including j2_sync.h: #include <j2/j2_sync.h> However j2/j2_sync.h file is not available on the machine. The j2_inode.h has been changed to include the field ... j2SyncData_t *i_syncData; /* 8: control point for sync */ ... in its mntInode structure. The j2SyncData_t definition is in the j2_sync.h file that is missing.
Local fix
Using the bos.adt.7.1.3.45 fileset verision of j2_inode.h will make the compile succeed since the new field is not in the earlier version.
Problem summary
Since 71 TL04, j2_inode.h includes a new header file that is not shipped. Programs that include j2_inode.h may now fail to compile.
Problem conclusion
Removed the new #include line, and added a nominal definition of the necessary datatype to j2_inode.h
Temporary fix
