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.
