Received errno error when MAKEing...

Hi All...

I received

./src/app/settings/app_settings.c: In function ‘AppSettings__get_config_path’:
./src/app/settings/app_settings.c:77:17: error: ‘errno’ undeclared (first use in this function)
   77 |                 errno = s;
      |                 ^~~~~
./src/app/settings/app_settings.c:5:1: note: ‘errno’ is defined in header ‘<errno.h>’; did you forget to ‘#include <errno.h>’?

make: *** [Makefile:1892: src/app/settings/onvifmgr-app_settings.o] Error 1

during the final make

(https://techoverflow.net/2019/06/20/how-to-fix-c-error-errno-undeclared/) gave me the answer...

when you try to compile it you see an error message like

fix-c-error-errno-undeclared.txt📋 Copy to clipboard⇓ Download main.c: In function ‘main’: main.c:4:5: error: ‘errno’ undeclared (first use in this function) errno = EFAULT; ^~~~~ main.c:4:5: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in main.c:4:13: error: ‘EFAULT’ undeclared (first use in this function) errno = EFAULT; Solution: Add

fix-c-error-errno-undeclared.c📋 Copy to clipboard⇓ Download

include

at the top of the source file where the error occured. This will include both the errno variable and specific error codes like EFAULT.

solution

vi ./src/app/settings/app_settings.c add

include

to top of file in the includes section

rerun make and it built successfully!

Good day and thank you for this feedback.

I'm not sure why this include is optional on all my environment, but you are correct. I just added the missing include.

Feel free to submit a pull request if you find additional faults.

Thanks for this contribution!

Thanks!

Sorry, I assumed that would be it since you provided the solution.

Looking forward to hear back!
