libnet-functions.h:1432:error:expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’, ‘asm’ or ‘__attribute__’ before

Jane2008 · 11-12-2009, 11:35 AM

Hello,
I'm trying to make an application with libnet and the following error shows up:
/usr/include/./libnet/libnet-functions.h:1432: error: expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’, ‘asm’ or ‘__attribute__’ before ‘u_int32_t’
I looked into the libnet-functions.h file and found that there is a "inline" used before "u_int32_t". It seems that the compiler can't recognize the keyword "inline". How can I fix this problem? Thanks in advance.

That's... strange. The "inline" directive is fairly standard.

1) Is that error message the *very first* error message that appears? If not, forget about it and go back to the first one the compiler spits out.

2) What compiler are you using?

Oh no, I was being stoopid. Change 'u_int32_t' to 'uint32_t'.
