I might be wrong, but I thought _fmode needed a more complex declaration, at least on mingw, for which you are supposed to include stdlib.h. For example, for mingw, in stdlib.h, it is declared this way: #if !defined (__DECLSPEC_SUPPORTED) || defined (__IN_MINGW_RUNTIME) #ifdef __MSVCRT__ extern int* _imp___fmode; #define _fmode (*_imp___fmode) #else /* CRTDLL */ extern int* _imp___fmode_dll; #define _fmode (*_imp___fmode_dll) #endif #else /* __DECLSPEC_SUPPORTED */ #ifdef __MSVCRT__ __MINGW_IMPORT int _fmode; #else /* ! __MSVCRT__ */ __MINGW_IMPORT int _fmode_dll; #define _fmode _fmode_dll #endif /* ! __MSVCRT__ */ #endif /* __DECLSPEC_SUPPORTED */ As you can see it is a little more complex than a simple extern (e.g. it uses __declspec(dllimport) when it is supported, and a bit of manual dereferencing otherwise). So maybe you would just include stdlib.h and use definition from there? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
