Include Files

[Alice Daniel]

I performed a custom install of 5.1b and only selected the mandatory subsets.. And nothing from the Assoc. Prod. CD Vol II.

Now, when I try to compile my app, it can't find many of the includes that are normally in sys/include (e.g. stdio.h). What subset or assoc prod. must I install to get my includes?

Hi,

the files you are looking for are not on the associated products cd.
They are part of the development environment in the standard header files section.
What you may try is to mount the os cd.
cd /mnt
setld -l .
I haven't tried it yet but you may be offered the missing software subsets.

greetings,

Michael

Yes that will work.

It's highly recommended to always install all subsets. With current disk sizes there is no need to save a few bytes by not installing everything and it does make live much easier once you start adding patches with dupatch.
