Hi everyone,

I am having trouble compiling a linux demo program using a supplied makefile. This is being done on an Intel PC running Redhat 8.0. The problem is that there is a missing header: bytesex.h.
I did a search and I can't find bytesex.h on the harddrive, or in any place on the Redhat site. Google has it mentioned in some places, but I can't see any place to download it.
Does anyone have any experience with this file or know how I can get it?

Thanks in advance for any help!
Eric

Eric,

This header file is not in the standard. It must be specific to some kind of project. Perhaps it has to do with combinations and mixtures of bytes and the original author wanted to give a catchy name to the header.

Keep searching the net. I suppose someone will have the file.

Good luck.
Chris.

I'm really not that kind of boy...

Nonetheless, I really couldn't resist this one. Indeed, it seems to be a file for byte manipulations.

Here is a download link.

I guess you might have to put the file in /usr/include or some kind of UNIX directory or whatever.

:cool:

Hi Chris,

Thanks much for the link! I will try to include it and see what happens.
BTW, the project is a user level threads package called bb_threads that can be found here:
http://www.northco.net/chenke/project/linuxcode.html
It is the first entry, Bare-Bones Threads.
Our instructor suggested it as a model for the program we need to do, and I am having trouble getting it to compile.

Thanks again,
Eric
