[GCC] Missing header files
Good morning! I am creating a program that uses raw sockets in C and need to call the "netpacket/packet.h" header file. However when I compile with gcc i get
Quote:
error: netpacket/packet.h : no such file or directory
I'm running os 10.5.8 with version gcc 4.0.1 and just update xcode last night which didn't seem to help. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated. THanks Smilie

OSX is notoriously devoid of header files for some network apps.

I think the file you want lives in <common/packet.h>.

You can use the find command to locate packet.h, if it even exists.

Do you know about libpcap? If not, I'd suggest that and not a direct roll-your-own approach to raw sockets.
