Missing inttypes.h in visual studio 2005

SDL Development
1

Hi!

I am trying to compile a program of mine with visual studio 2005. But it
fails saying it cant find include file ‘inttypes.h’.
Now, if I am not mistaken, this file should not be included when cmpiling on
windows, right? And I have checked that WIN32 is #defined in the build
settings
and stuff, but no luck.

The program compiles fine on linux.

Thanx in advance

Start → Search → All Files and Folders → All or Part of the File
Name → inttypes.h

only reports my MingW inttypes.h file. So I believe it is missing, at
least from my free Express compiler.

Good news is that Google Search turns up this page:

Best of luck,

Hi!

thanks, i found that too. But it seems like a work around and not a real
solution, since it should not be included…i think(?)

Anyways, when i added those include files, i get to a new error about
missing include files iconv.h.

Seems like it thinks it is compiling SDL on linux (at least a not windows
platform).

Did you copy SDL_config_win32.h to SDL_config.h in the include directory?

See ya!

i read there is inttypes.h and stdint.h for data types. not sure of
the differences, but thought stdint.h was better or preferred. also,
not sure what windows has since i do not have it. perhaps try stdint.h
