Bug ID: 17183
Summary: description of ENTRY struct in <search.h> in glibc
manual is incorrect
Product: glibc
Version: unspecified
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: manual
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: iep1ungo at yopmail dot com
CC: mtk.manpages at gmail dot com, roland at gnu dot org
The glibc manual incorrectly describes the ENTRY struct defined in <search.h>
(the hash table entries used by hsearch().
The manual states that both the key and the data fields of the ENTRY struct are
char pointers.
( here
https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Hash-Search-Function.html )
This is incorrect. The "key" field is a char* and the "data" field is a null*.
