#30312 closed defect

clang cannot compile ncurses — at Version 1

Reported by: Veence (Vincent) Owned by: macports-tickets@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.0.0
Keywords: clang Cc: jmr@…
Port: ncurses

Description (last modified by Veence (Vincent))

The clang++ compiler does not compile ncurses 1.9 because of a mistake between 

NCursesUserForm (NCursesFormField* Fields[],…) and NCursesUserForm (NCursesFormField Fields[],

in cursesm.h and cursesf.h.

Apparently, since these objects are never instantiated, GCC does not complain about the type mismatch, whereas clang is more correct.

I join two patches that fix this inconsistency. Please update the portfile accordingly.
