[LU-12527] lustreapi.h not c++ compatible

• Type: Improvement
• Resolution: Fixed
• Priority: Minor
• Fix Version/s: Lustre 2.13.0
• Environment: C++
• Assignee: Robert Latham
• Reporter: Robert Latham

Description

If one tries to compile a C++ program with the `lustre/lustreapi.h` header, the compiler will throw all kinds of warnings.

This issue came up on the mailing list a few years ago: http://lists.lustre.org/pipermail/lustre-discuss-lustre.org/2017-March/014268.html and I encountered it again in a different context this week. Guess not many C++ programs try to use lustreapi.h !

Try now Rob

I'm going through the process. info@whamcloud probably gets a ton of spam, but it also got a request from me asking for permission to push to gerrit.

Rob

Thank you for the bug report and patch. Are you able to submit your patch directly to Gerrit (see http://wiki.lustre.org/Using_Gerrit for details)? If not, then we can assign this ticket to another developer, but it will likely take longer to get attention
