fatal error: 'endian.h' file not found
c, macos, xcode
Solution
On OSX and iOS, you can include endian.h this way:
#include <machine/endian.h>
But note that this will fail on Android or Linux because they expect `#include <endian.h>`.
You can also include sys/types.h, which will include the right endian.h both on iOS/OSX and Android/Linux:
#include <sys/types.h>
Problem
Trying to compile C program, every time I run `make` or `gmake` as recommended I get this error. ``` $ make /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/make -C src all gcc -g -W -Wall -O3 -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_REVISION=0 -Iinclude -c -o osdep/radiotap/radiotap.o osdep/radiotap/radiotap.c In file included from osdep/radiotap/radiotap.c:17: osdep/radiotap/platform.h:6:10: fatal error: 'endian.h' file not found #include <endian.h> ^ 1 error generated. make[1]: *** [osdep/radiotap/radiotap.o] Error 1 make: *** [all] Error 2 $ gmake gmake -C src all gmake[1]: Entering directory '/Users/silent/Desktop/aircr-1.2-rc1/src' gcc -g -W -Wall -O3 -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_REVISION=0 -Iinclude -c -o osdep/radiotap/radiotap.o osdep/radiotap/radiotap.c In file included from osdep/radiotap/radiotap.c:17: osdep/radiotap/platform.h:6:10: fatal error: 'endian.h' file not found #include <endian.h> ^ 1 error generated. <builtin>: recipe for target 'osdep/radiotap/radiotap.o' failed gmake[1]: *** [osdep/radiotap/radiotap.o] Error 1 gmake[1]: Leaving directory '/Users/silent/Desktop/aircr-1.2-rc1/src' Makefile:25: recipe for target 'all' failed gmake: *** [all] Error 2 ``` According to some forms online recommended to check the file in this location `~/usr/include/machine` but doesn't say what to do if found or not! nothing else was helpful. Then, I found this http://www.opensource.apple.com/source/CarbonHeaders/CarbonHeaders-18.1/Endian.h ``` silent:~/usr/include/machine $ ls _limits.h _types.h fasttrap_isa.h profile.h vmparam.h _mcontext.h byte_order.h limits.h signal.h _param.h `endian.h` param.h types.h ``` As you can the file I am getting the error for is already existed! Any help would be appreciated. Thank you. PS: I am newbie, I don't know what is this link above talking about :(!
