[Would somebody please give me a newsreader that works? :(]
We have GCC version 2.6-95q2 installed under SunOS 4.1.3. When I compile
a "Hello, World!" program:
#include <stdio.h>
int main (int argc, char *argv[])
{
printf ("Hello, World!\n") ;
}
I get a warning:
% gcc -Wall hello.c
hello.c: In function `main':
** hello.c:5: warning: implicit declaration of function `printf' **
hello.c:6: warning: control reaches end of non-void function
PRINTF() not declared? When I use the "-E" option to look at the CPP output,
I find that <stdio.h> has the following structure:
(/usr/gnu/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-sunos4.1.3/2.6-95q2/include/stdio.h)
#include <stdarg.h>
#ifndef FILE
extern struct _iobuf {...} _iob[] ;
...
# define FILE struct _iobuf
...
... EXTERN declarations for functions that return non-INT and
... non-VOID types, using the _PARAMS macro.
...
#endif
#if defined(__cplusplus) || defined(__USE_FIXED_PROTOTYPES__)
...
... EXTERN declarations for functions that return INTs and VOIDs (;),
... but the _PARAMS macro is NOT used.
...
#endif
The final "#if/#endif" section is not included since the two macros are not
defined. Is something wrong with our GCC installation, or am I just the
first person to notice that 3/4 of the Standard I/O functions are not being
declared?
Can anyone shed some light on this problem for me? ("-v" output from the
GCC command is found below.)
Thanks, Alex
