Re: Error compiling for iPhone simulator

["ahmedyarub@xxxxxxxxx" <ahmedyarub@xxxxxxxxx>]

 I could successfully build it by passing these parameters:-DWITH_GSSAPI=FALSE  -DHAVE_EXPLICIT_BZERO=0

What puzzles me is why does it say during the test-build that explicity_bzero is available, but when I build curl it fails to find it?

Can you share the build log with a bit more context before the errors?
The explicit_bzero() is not available in OSX if I am right, but it
should be correctly recognized during the configure time and local
implementation from src/misc.c used.

Unfortunately, gitlab does not offer OSX runners in Gitlab CI so we can
not simply test OSX builds as part of CI at this moment.
