uint64_t + gcc + openDBX compilation error

Hi everybody. First, sorry for my english, i am argentinian.

I am trying to use a c library called openDBX that helps us talk to different RDBMS. Here is the link: http://www.linuxnetworks.de/doc/index.php/OpenDBX

I have already compiled and installed. Now, i am trying a simple c programe that uses it. The problem is that when i tried to compile this program, i have en compile error in a header i need to include of openDBX.

Mi c program (Prueba.c) is this:

Code:

#include <stdio.h>

#include <stdlib.h>

#include <odbx.h>



int main(void) {

        puts("Hello World!!");

        return EXIT_SUCCESS;

}

The file odbx is the one i need to use. See that the problems occurs during compilation, even if i don't use it. This file (odbx.h) is in /usr/local/include. I undestand that this directory is standard so i don't need to pass any parametres to gcc. don't i ?

The error is this:

In file included from Prueba.c:3:
/usr/local/include/odbx.h:206: error: expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’, ‘asm’ or ‘__attribute__’ before ‘odbx_rows_affected’

If i open de odbx, the line 206 is like this:

uint64_t odbx_rows_affected( odbx_result_t* result );

The uint64_t is only used there. I think there is the problem. I see that odbx.h includes the stdint, in this way:
#ifdef HAVE_STDINT_H
#include <stdint.h>

Can i have a problem with this and the gcc ??? do you need some other information so that to help me ?

I am using gcc version 4.1.3 and ubuntu gutsy gibbon.

very thanks

Yes, there’s your problem. There should be a global config include file which was generated by your configure script that defines that particular value. Figure out where this include file is and why that value is left undefined.

If you want to see where it all started, go back to your configure script and look at the output. One of the lines should be something like:

Code:

checking for malloc.h... yes

checking for stdint.h... yes

checking for string.h... yes

If that particular line is missing or the “yes” is a “no”, you should look at config.log to see why.
