Library file

I have one library file missing, it should contain the following functions:

Code:

---

crypt
gettimeofday
srandom
random

---

Can anyone tell me what library file is it? Maybe I even have it...

Code:

---

#include <stdlib.h>

---

stdlib.h is not standard.

use

Code:

---

#include <cstdlib>

---

instead.

[edit] for rand and srand, anyway. I don't know about the other two. [/edit]

yes cstdlib.h is the standard one...

....for C++ :D

this is the difference between c and c++. we're working with c++ so we would want to use

Code:

---

#include <cstdlib>

---

maybe they're both standard though...
you might want

Code:

---

#include <ctime>

---

and for the crypt function, i couldn't help you
anyway did that answer your question maxorator?

>> stdlib.h is not standard.
Yes it is. It is standard in C++, but deprecated, meaning it will still work on all standards-compliant compilers now, but maybe not in a later version of the standard. You are right that <cstdlib> is preferred in C++.

There's no such thing as cstdlib.h, it is cstdlib or stdlib.h.


Of course, none of the names in the OP are from stdlib.h (or cstdlib) anyway, so it doesn't matter in this case.

Your question is meaningless without you also telling us which OS/Compiler you have.

See the FAQ on what to do if you need "foo.h" but don't have it question.
