    gcc issue, can't compile...

    I installed gcc using YaST2 and thought all was honky dory. However, I can't compile and c-files. When I try to compile in bash I get.

    hello.c:1:20: fatal error: stdio.h: File doesn't exist.
    compilation terminated.

    which gcc gives:
    /usr/bin/gcc



    I'm not used to compile stuff in the terminal..? If anyone could help me or point me in the right direction.

    It looks like you haven't got the header files installed.

    To install a development environment in openSUSE (in 11.n anyway) you would open the Yast software installer and change the filter to patterns and then selecting and installing the C/C++ development pattern. You could do the same from the command line using the command
    Code:
    zypper install -t pattern devel_C_C++
    If we hit that bullseye, the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate! (Zapp Brannigan)


    My new blog. It's probably not as good as I think it is.

    Hi and thanks!

    I'm not sure o what I did wrong, but I have a hunch that it has something to do with the fact that I was under the influence of some alcoholic beverages. I tried a hello world today and it worked like a charm.

    Patterns you say, I'm not sure I should tinker further, but I checked some c/c++ package. Now YaST is dl:ing loads of stuff. Hope it comes in handy.
