Problem with gcc build - #including files

Manage the automat transitions, so it includes "TX_automat_SW. h".

It needs to use some functions from netfunc.h

If I don't include netfunc.h I get

[...]
src/TX_SW.c: In function ‘main’:
src/TX_SW.c:25: error: ‘arguments’ undeclared (first use in this function)
[...]

if I include both

#include <TX_automat_SW. h>
#include <netfunc.h>

then functions are not defined in TX_automat_SW

[...]
./src/TX_automat_SW.o : In function `manage_data':
src/TX_automat_SW.c :80: referencia a `format_frame' sin definir
[...]

As I think, solution is related with #ifndef #ifdef and #endif directives, but I've never used it... and I don't know how to do it...

First off anything you include that is not part of the standard or platform SDK should be included with double quotes #include "netfunc.h" . Either your compiler will just ignore the difference between <> and "" or it will look in a different path.

So it looks like in your TX_automat_SW.c you are referencing something called "format_fra me" that is not visitable to TX_automat_SW. It doesnt have anything to do with the #ifdef #endif statements. You are missing a #include in either TX_automat_SW.c or TX_automat_SW.h .

¿entiendes?

Entiendo (o eso creo), gracias... But I couldn't solve my problem

I've replaced <> with "" around my .h files.

TX_automat_SW.c includes this:

[CODE=c]
#include "TX_automat_SW. h"
#include "netfunc.h"

#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
[/CODE]

When I run my make.

Code:

sieira@GATTACA:/DOCS/Mis documentos/Estudios pendientes/Teleinformatica/LABORATORIO/Practica II/Programas$ make
gcc -g -c -Wall -I ./include src/IFTI_P2_automat.c -o src/IFTI_P2_automat.o
gcc -g -c -Wall -I ./include src/TX_automat_SW.c -o src/TX_automat_SW.o
gcc -g -c -Wall -I ./include src/TX_SW.c -o src/TX_SW.o
src/TX_SW.c: In function ‘main’:
src/TX_SW.c:26: error: ‘arguments’ undeclared (first use in this function)
src/TX_SW.c:26: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
src/TX_SW.c:26: error: for each function it appears in.)
src/TX_SW.c:26: error: expected ‘;’ before ‘args’
src/TX_SW.c:31: error: ‘frame’ undeclared (first use in this function)
src/TX_SW.c:31: error: expected ‘;’ before ‘inFrame’
src/TX_SW.c:32: error: ‘packet’ undeclared (first use in this function)
src/TX_SW.c:32: error: expected ‘;’ before ‘inPacket’
src/TX_SW.c:41: error: ‘MAX’ undeclared (first use in this function)
src/TX_SW.c:41: error: ‘args’ undeclared (first use in this function)
src/TX_SW.c:88: warning: implicit declaration of function ‘print_frame’
src/TX_SW.c:92: warning: implicit declaration of function ‘from_physical_layer’
src/TX_SW.c:92: error: ‘inFrame’ undeclared (first use in this function)
src/TX_SW.c:93: error: ‘CONTROL’ undeclared (first use in this function)
src/TX_SW.c:94: error: ‘ACK’ undeclared (first use in this function)
src/TX_SW.c:96: warning: implicit declaration of function ‘format_packet’
src/TX_SW.c:96: error: ‘inPacket’ undeclared (first use in this function)
make: *** [src/TX_SW.o] Error 1

(as you can see "gcc -g -c -Wall -I ./include src/TX_automat_SW.c -o src/TX_automat_SW.o " returns no errors)

Every error and warning refers to types and functions contained in "netfunc.h" , and called from TX_SW.c so i include it. Since this header is included in both (TX_automat_SW. c and TX_SW.c) files. What I get is this:

Code:

sieira@GATTACA:/DOCS/Mis documentos/Estudios pendientes/Teleinformatica/LABORATORIO/Practica II/Programas$ make
gcc -g -c -Wall -I ./include src/IFTI_P2_automat.c -o src/IFTI_P2_automat.o
gcc -g -c -Wall -I ./include src/TX_automat_SW.c -o src/TX_automat_SW.o
gcc -g -c -Wall -I ./include src/TX_SW.c -o src/TX_SW.o
gcc  ./src/IFTI_P2_automat.o ./src/TX_automat_SW.o ./src/TX_SW.o -o bin/TX_SW

src/TX_SW.c:118: referencia a `format_packet' sin definir
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [bin/TX_SW] Error 1

Now types get defined, and no error related is shown...but netfunc.h functions become undefined in both files...

I'm getting crazy...

I would be going crazy too. I took your code and compiled it with Visual Studio.NET and got no errors.

I has to add this:

[code=cpp]
#define MAX 100
#define AUTOMAT_INITIAL _STATE 100
class TAutomat
{

};
class TEntity
{

};
class TState
{

};
class TEvent
{

};
class TEventArgs
{

};
[/code]

just before the netfunc.h. I just made up values to see if it would compile.

My code looks like:

[code=cpp]
#define MAX 100
#define AUTOMAT_INITIAL _STATE 100
class TAutomat
{

};
class TEntity
{

};
class TState
{

};
class TEvent
{

};
class TEventArgs
{

};

Thank you, I was not getting crazy. I was stupid...

I wondered "why didn't compile for me if the code has no errors?"

Obviously the problem was in my Makefile

Code:

CC=gcc
CXX=gcc
INCLUDES=-I ./include
CFLAGS=-g -c -Wall
LDFLAGS=
SOURCES=./src/IFTI_P2_automat.c ./src/TX_automat_SW.c ./src/TX_SW.c
OBJECTS=$(SOURCES:.c=.o)
EXECUTABLE1=./bin/TX_SW
EXECUTABLE2=./bin/RX_SW

all: $(SOURCES) $(EXECUTABLE1) $(EXECUTABLE2)
	
$(EXECUTABLE1): $(OBJECTS) 
	$(CC) $(LDFLAGS) $(OBJECTS) -o $@

$(EXECUTABLE2): $(OBJECTS) 
	$(CC) $(LDFLAGS) $(OBJECTS) -o $@

.c.o:
	$(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(INCLUDES) $< -o $@

clean:
	\rm -rf $(OBJECTS) $(EXECUTABLE1) $(EXECUTABLE2)

I forgot to add ./src/netfunc.c in the SOURCES tag!!!

I don't use to write Makefiles this way... so I didn't see it.

Thousands of thanks

You gotta trade that thing in for an IDE that does the makefiles for you.

You know that sometimes you just don't get a choice, particularly if you want to do management of multi-platform code.

Most platforms compilers do not come with an IDE.
