What steps will reproduce the problem?
Compiling libtorrent 0.16.10 fails on Debian GNU/kFreeBSD.
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The compilation fails on escape_string.cpp:
CXX escape_string.lo
../../src/escape_string.cpp: In function 'std::string
libtorrent::iconv_convert_impl(const string&, iconv_t)':
../../src/escape_string.cpp:547:18: error: invalid conversion from 'const
char**' to 'char**' [-fpermissive]
In file included from ../../src/escape_string.cpp:62:0:
/usr/include/iconv.h:42:15: error: initializing argument 2 of 'size_t
iconv(iconv_t, char**, size_t*, char**, size_t*)' [-fpermissive]
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
libtorrent 0.16.10 on Debian GNU/kFreeBSD (FreeBSD kernel with GNU userland).
Please provide any additional information below.
Since GNU libc is used, the iconv implementation is provided there too, and its
signature does not have the const qualifiers in the iconv() parameters.
Thus, the attached patch avoids the TORRENT_ICONV_ARG definition in the
BSD-specific branch in config.hpp when __GLIBC__ is defined (i.e. when GNU libc
is used), which will make the const-less TORRENT_ICONV_ARG define being used.
