hello all,
I am trying to compile a simple C program on SunOS 5.5.1 and I get the following errors,
/usr/include/stdio.h:107: Invald token in expression
/usr/include/stdio.h:109: Invald token in expression
/usr/include/ctype.h:81: Invald token in expression
Any ideas as to what am I missing? I looked at the lines mentioned above, but could not figure out whats going wrong.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks.
Could it be that in the header-files as mentioned by the compiler are some invalid characters? For example, if you have written code on a Windows machine and transport it to a Unix machine for compiling, then it will complain because of the DOS end of line characters, which are invalid characters for Unix compilers.
I would suggest you use a text-editor on SunOS and take a look at the mentioned lines to see if there is an invalid character.
>>>Any ideas as to what am I missing?
Yes, you're missing the code. If you want help from us, it's probably best you actually post some.
When all else fails, read the instructions.
If you're posting code, use code tags: [code] /* insert code here */ [/code]
>Any ideas as to what am I missing?
I could be mistaken, it's happened before, but you may have an invalid token in the expression.
-Prelude
My best code is written with the delete key.
the command
dos2unix <filename>
fixes the above mentioned end of line character problem.
