I find that adding -D_GNU_SOURCE is useful for linux.
This define enable more features from header files.
First) i found that define enable declaration/definition of following methods
- grantpt(...)
- unlockpt(...)
- ptsname(...)
for device "/dev/ptmx" ( support for ptys, preferred is method openpty (...) )
Second) _GNU_SOURCE enable use of utmpx and wtmpx ( support for login recording,
preferred is USE_LOGIN and syslogin_write_entry )
Three) ? at this time i don't know.
