C: compile error

[kristof_v]

HI, I grabbed this code from http://wiki.debian.org/MacBook#head-b64 ... 04704a07f1 to test the remote control of my macbook in Debian.

the code:

Code: Select all

however when I try to compile it with gcc macbook-ir.c, it gives the following errors:

Code: Select all

gcc macbook-ir.c

any ideas???

1. Install libusb-dev (apt-get install libusb-dev)
2. Add "#include <shed.h>" (without the quotation marks) in the top of the source file.
3. Compile with

Code: Select all

gcc `libusb-config --libs --cflags` -L /usr/X11R6/lib -lXt -lXtst -o macbook-ir macbook-ir.c

brain: shed.h was not found, so I gues you meant sched.h and used that?

I'm getting 1 error during compilation now:

macbook:/home/kristof# gcc `libusb-config --libs --cflags` -L /usr/X11R6/lib -lXt -lXtst -o macbook-ir macbook-ir.c
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXt
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

any idea??

fixed

I still had to install libxt-dev and lib-xtst-dev
