Make Failed - ‘for’ loop initial declarations are only allowed in C99 or C11 mode

I have a problem to compile the source under the following conditions:

Hardware: Orange Pi Zero OS: Raspian GNU/Linux 8 uname -a Linux OrangePI 3.4.39 #2 SMP PREEMPT Mon Nov 21 16:23:11 CST 2016 armv7l GNU/Linux

I have installed the packages "gcc" and "make" before this task. The following output have bin received:

It says so right in the logs.. ‘for’ loop initial declarations are only allowed in C99 or C11 mode

Unless you specify the C99 as the standard or move the declaration to a step earlier, it will give you the error.

You can either specify " -std = C99 " in the build flags

OR

Try moving the for (uint8_t i = 0; i < times; i++)

declaration of the i before the loop like so

uint8_t i=0;
for(i =0 ; i < times ; i++)

for the all the messages shown above. That should fix it.

Thank you!

The compilation was completed after I inserted the declaration of the loop variable. A test by set the global variable c99 was not helpful for me.
However, the loops do not make sense because 'i' is not used within the loop.

Hi I have the same problems, I tried changing declaration in one file and I have the same error in several files...

I don't want to edit each files so,

You can either specify " -std = C99 " in the build flags

How do you do that? Which file ?

Thx
