Hi Folks,

I got some problems and need your help.

In school, my codes are writeen under UNIX system (Solaris10/SUN), now I need to transfer those codes to Linux (Redhat5). But after I directly copy to Linux, it shows many errors and warnings.

Does anyone know which codes I need to modify to specifily suit for UNIX? I am not familiar with those systems and hope to get your kind help.

Thank you very much.

I found many errors on "exit" and "malloc" build-in function, what's going on here?

"my codes" = the source code of some program/s written by yourself, right?

Mainly the difference is in the processor/architecture (maybe you are using a sparc chip in solaris, and an Intel x86 architecture one in the linux one).

I assume that you mean you're trying to recompile the source codes, but you get a lot of errors when you do. Check for the libraries needed for the sources to compile. Install any non-installed (needed) ones, and try again.


Probably using a different compiler? I assume you mean C code. You probably weren't using gcc on Solaris ("man cc" on that machine).
Even when you get those messages, do the sources compile properly? (you get a binary file?)

I got it. Add <stdlib.h>

Another question: under UNIX, I use this to complie:

gcc -g -o codes codes.c -lget -lstd -lm

But when I use it under Linux, it shows:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lget
collect2: ld return 1 exit status

What's that mean? Thanks.

Does your program use "libget"?

"-l<library name>" links in a library.
