Sys/times.h cross-compiler header

Hello!

I have just noticed that the include file sys/times.h has been
removed from the mingw32 crosscompiler headers
compared to the earlier versions of the crosscompiler.
The only thing that the old sys/times.h did was to include
sys/time.h. Are there any good reasons to remove it?
It seems to me that keeping it will make applications
slightly more portable from unix to Windows… :slight_smile:

I’ve no idea. My hunch is that sys/times.h natively included functions
not available in the cross-compiler environment.
