I'm not under OS/2, but I believe I have sys/socket.h. The
thing is, certain types (INETADDR is an example IIRC) are
not defined there, and I can't find the definitions for them.

The EMX socket headers contain everything necessary for
writing a socket application using the BSD Unix 4.3 TCP/IP
interface (at least).

i have a neat little system monitoring program here that emits html code... this program also has the ability to send commands to the system via a cgi program... the problem that i'm running into is as follows...

1. i'm a pascal type of guy
2. the cgi interface program is written in C
3. i have to compile the cgi interface program
4. i have the following EMX installed and operational

[from EMXREV]
EMX : revision = 60
EMXIO : revision = 60
EMXLIBC : revision = 60
EMXLIBCM : revision = 60
EMXLIBCS : revision = 60
EMXWRAP : revision = 60

5. the .c file starts off like this

/*
* Include Files.
*/
#ifdef __OS2__
#include <types.h>
#define perror(x) psock_errno(x)
#define close(x) soclose(x)
#else
#include <sys/types.h>
#endif
#include <unistd.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <netinet/in.h>
#include <netdb.h>

6. when i compile the .c file (ie: gcc thefile.c)
i get the following output and no executable...

7. i know that i don't have a types.h file in my emx\include folder
8. i know that i do have a types.h in my emx\include\sys folder

i =think= that i need to put an ifdef for EMX in there to include a different TYPES.H file but not knowing much about this stuff, i'm here for assistance <<GG>> it may be also that i need the IBM Programmers Toolkit for OS/2 Warp 3.0 ???

You've forgotten to specify some library or other. FInd out which library defines those symbols and add it to the command line.

this kind of references into another message i wrote in this area about the same time as i wrote the above... that message talks about apparently needing a
developers toolkit to get types.h for os/2 programs... i've got warp 3 w/no fixpaks not sure what else... what would i look for if i had it so i can put it
in the right place?
