Hello,
I'm trying to compile a simple fork/exec program in vc6 using cygwin but I
can't get past the vc compiler complaining about an include file:
main.cpp
c:\cygwin\usr\include\sys\_types.h(13) : error C2632: 'long' followed by
'long' is illegal
c:\cygwin\usr\include\sys\_types.h(13) : error C2144: syntax error : missing
';' before type 'long'
c:\cygwin\usr\include\sys\_types.h(13) : error C2501: '__extension__' :
missing storage-class or type specifiers
c:\cygwin\usr\include\sys\_types.h(13) : fatal error C1004: unexpected end
of file found
Error executing cl.exe.
Here's the code:
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <iostream.h>
int main (int argc, char** argv)
{
cout <<"forking...."<<endl;
pid_t pid = fork();
......
}
The only thing I did in VC was add the include path to the cygwin include
files. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Robert Lee
