It's hard to tell, with as little information as you gave. A typical
problem is that not all code on the stack is compiled with
- -fexceptions; in particular, C code is often not compiled that way.
There could be hundreds of other reasons as well, of course.

Subject: RE: exception handling
Thanx for the answer.
I did some more checking after my post, and the problem is exactly what you
say, the exception gets lost when it passes c code. I tried to compile the c
code with g++ but too many errors. Can I compile the c code with egcs and
still have exception handling in it?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanx

Of course. Martin just gave you the option to use. Have a read of
info egcs
It is probably there. It's in "info gcc" for gcc-2.95.1, which is only
a little newer.
egcs -fexceptions -o foo foo.c

You can compile the C code with -fexceptions.

Ever wanted to lose weight while sitting on your butt in front of the TV???
Well now you can!! How you say?
With three powerful body organs working together to decrease metabolism, how will you
ever lose those extra pounds? - Increase Metabolic Fat Burning!
http://www.jumbomart.com/products/product.php/116/
Metabolic Thyrolean works on all three regulatory areas involved in metabolism. In the
thyroid, Metabolic Thyrolean improves the conversion of thyroid hormones, which means
that the more active hormones work for you instead of against you. It also fools the
liver into thinking that you are storing plenty of ATP, which means that the liver has
no reason to regulate your metabolism downward. Finally, in the brain, Metabolic
Thyrolean provides the substrates to build neurotransmitters-without the need for
calories. The final result is that metabolism remains elevated, with a positive effect
on metabolism, calorie-burning and fat loss. This cutting edge formula takes a whole
new approach to weight loss.
1time mail of e-Fatnews. No more fat loss info will come unless you request it.

Depends on who you are and where you stand in relation to the process.
If you are programming the process, abort() will dump core to the
current working directory to a file named core - if there isn't one
alreafy - and you can read it with gdb. - if your program doesn't have a
handler for the abort signal, and it doesn't sound like it does. If it
is a separate process, you can try sending it a signal it doesn't handle
or block with kill(1) and that will probably make it dump core.

Check out www.kdevelop.org, I think it'll be exactly what you want.
Although, it does force you to conform to GNU coding standards and directory
structures. It does some other annoying things, like it tries to insert GPL
license disclaimers in all your code, but it also has a decent dialog box
editor and is overall the best free ide that I have been able to find so
far.

Subject: This is for you
Hi ! If the fact of receiving this message chocks you, please delete it immediately. I
excuse myself sincerely. Your truly,
thank you.
**********************************************************************************
AS EASY AS TRUE : GAIN $50,000 IN 3 MONTHS !
You wish to gain much money ?
Take a few minutes to read this message !
You�ll be delighted to know that you can make a lot of money on the Internet simply by
sending e-maills. It pays well. It�s
paying, easy and it�s legal. Try it !
This message is to inform you of the existance of a program a friend sent me. I hope
that this program will interest you. You
will find below the content of the e-mail she sent me. I must send this message to
everyone if I want to make money. My
friend explained to me that it works and that it�s very stimulating : � The e-mails
arrive as if by magic ! �, she told me.
***********************************************************************************
CONTENT OF E-MAIL WE WORK WITH
Maybe you already have received a message similar to this one coming from someone
else. Unless there is a mistake, this is
the first and the last time that I send it to you. I am aware that you received this
message without asking for it. If you
don�t answer this e-mail, you won�t receive anything else from me.
But if you�re interested by this message, be sure that you�ll be happy to have read
me, because I have a very interesting,
honorable and lucrative proposal to make to you : nothing that would be illegal or
immoral.
When I received this program myself, accidentaly, I saw in it an opportunity to
circulate abondance through other people and
to ameliorate my financial situation. I can tell you that it is now possible to make
money from home with the wonderfull tool
that is Internet. If we give it a try, by devoting 30 minutes to one hour per day, it
works ! I would like to share with you
this wonderful, exceptionnal and profit-earning business plan to develop at home.
Consequently, I invite you to read
attentively what follows and think that this is another scam because it seams too easy.
WHAT WAS SHOWN ON TV
Here is what you could have seen on tv recently. Because of the great popularity of
this letter on the Internet, an important
evening news program has devoted an entire broadcast to analyze if the following
program could really generate money. In this
broadcast, the letter was also analyzed to see if it was proposing something legal.
What was discovered prooves once and for
all that there is no law in America that fordids anyone from participating in this
kind of work. This helped to demonstrate
that it is a simple and pleasant way to make extra money at home. There are a lot of
people implicated in this business.
Since more and more people make a lot of money with this program, it becomes very
stimulating to join it. You will understand
when you�ll experiment it !
*******************************************************************************
THE BUSINESS PLAN
(Print the following section to send it in the future)
EASY WAY TO MAKE MONEY
The increadible opportunity of this business plan is that it allows to begin by
investing a very small amount of money, as
well as generating extraordinary revenus. If you have the intention to make for
example $50,000 in less than 90 days, this
business plan will allow you to reach your financial goal !
A LEGITIMATE AND LEGAL OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE MONEY
Multilevel E-mail Report Business won its nobility rank. This is taught in the
prestigious Harvard University at its
specialized business school. The Stanford Research Centre and the Wall Street Journal
foresee that 50% to 65% of all goods
and services will soon by sold by the Multilevel E-Mail Business system. It is a
growing industry of several millions that is
expanding everyday. Among the 500,000 millionnaires of United States, 20% of them,
that is to say, 100,000, won their fortune
in investing in a network business. Statistics show that there are 50 new
millionnaires every day from network
commercialization.
TESTIMONY
Last year, Donald Trump was at the David Letterman tv show. Letterman asked him what
he would do if he lost all his
belongings and if he had to start from scratch. Without hesitation, Trump replied that
he would find a good networking
business and would start working there. The audience started to manifest its
opposition. He then looked at the audience and
said (insisting on these words): � This is the reason why I�m sitting here and you,
you�re over there. �
The information that you will find here is something I would usually let go.
Hopefully, a bit later, I read everything again,
I tought about it and I studied the proposal in depth. My name is Jacques Brault. Two
years ago, the business I worked for
the last 12 years decided to reduce its staff and by job was abolished. After several
infructuous interviews to find a job, I
decided to start my own business. Last year, I encountered financial difficulties. I
borrowed more thant 35 000 $ from family
members and friends. The economy didn�t help my business and I couldn�t see the day
when I would get out of this cycle. I had
to borrow again by morgaging my house to help my family and continue my business
venture.
Its about then that something very important happened in my life and I write this in
order to share with you my experience
hoping that it will change also your life for ever on the financial level. By mid
december, I received this program by
e-mail. Six months ago, I had asked for information regarding different business
opportunities. All the programs that I had
found were too difficult to understand or their initial investment was too high.
I never asked to receive the information about this present business opportunity.
Someone discovered my nane in a postal
list. After reading the message several times, I couldn�t believe my eyes. I had in my
hands a phenomenal method to make
money ! I could invest the amount of money I wanted in the beginning, without
generating more depts. After I took some paper
and pen, I analyzed it all and realized that the minimum I could receive was to
recover the money I had invested. But, as
most of you, I was still a bit sceptical and worried about the legal aspect of this
all. Then, I checked this with the postal
services at # 1-800-725-2161 and they confirmed that it was effectively legal. After
making sure that it was legal and that
the system didn�t consist of a chain of letters (meaning something pyramidal), I
decided : � And why not me ! �.
Initial investment
At the beginning of my project, I sent 10 000 e-mails. My initial inverstment cost me
$20 to purchase four reports. One
formidable aspect of the e-mails is that it doesn�t cost anything for the printing of
the message and of the reports :
because all the informations are transmitted by e-mail and that this way of
communicating virtually doesn�t require the same
supports as those of traditionnal communications. The only investment to consider is
your time : the time you spend on
development of your business.
First step of the project
The goal of this system is to receive at least a minimum of 20 orders of REPORT # 1
during the first two weeks of the
project. If you don�t reach this goal, send more messages until you rise to it. Within
a week, I started to receive orders
for REPORT # 1. At January 13, I had already received 26 orders for REPORT # 1. The
goal of my project was to gain $50,000 :
I had reached this goal.
Second step of the project
The goal is to receive a minimum of 100 orders and more for REPORT # 2 within two
weeks. Otherwise, you must send more
messages until you reach this goal. At January 30, I had received 196 orders for
REPORT # 2.
Third step of the project
The rest of the project is easy. Relax ! You will attain your goal of $50,000 in no
time. So I had 196 orders for REPORT # 2,
96 more than my initial goal. So, I rested and relaxed. At the beginning of the month
of March, I had received $58,000 for
the sending of my first 10 000 e-mails. Everyday, more was coming in. I paied all my
depts and bought a new car.
This program works. Please, take the time to read this message. This will change your
life forever. Remember, it won�t work
unless you try it. I�m the living proof that I works! If you choose not to participate
in this program, I�m sorry. You�re
free to decide. I certify that it constitutes a great opportunity, a low cost
investment at minimum risk. If you choose to
participate, follow this program well and you will be on the road of financial
security. If you�re a business person,
consider this as a sign of times. This is what I did ! Sincerely ! Signed : Jacques
Brault.
GOLDEN RULES OF THE PROGRAM
For this program to work, you must obtain more than :
- - 20 orders of REPORT # 1 ;
- - 100 orders and more of REPORT # 2 ;
- - and you will gain more than $50,000 in 90 days.
NOTE FROM THE PROGRAM CREATOR
By reading this program and its reports, you will conclude that it couldn�t havec been
designed by an amateur. Let me
introduce myself. Ten years ago, I had a business that worked well. Then, in 1979, my
business started to go wrong. I was
doing sensibly the same thing than when business was doing well. At last, I ended all
of this.
You just received information that will lead you to financial freedom for the rest of
your life without any risk and a little
bit of efforts. In the next months, you will have the possibility to gain more money
than you ever imagined. I made more than
$4,000,000 ! I retired from this program after sending more thant 16 000 programs.
Actually, I own several offices that work
on this business and I have several other of these programs here and oversees.
TESTIMONY FROM ANOTHER PARTICIPANT
Mr. Jos� Jacobs (Richmond, VA)
Follow this program exactly according to its instructions. Don�t change anything ! It
works extremely well as presented now.
Remember that you must send a copy of this excellent report to anyone you think about.
One of these persons could send the
message to 50 000 others, and your name would be on each of them. Dont�t forget also
that the more you send e-mails et the
more chances you�ll have of reaching potential clients. I gave you ideas, information,
the tools and the opportunity to
become financially independant. It�s up to you to try it ! Think about it !
But first of all, take the time to read and to really think about this proposal. Take
a pen and some paper and discover how
it�s going to happen when you�ll participate. Take the worst response you could obtain
and no matter how you�ll calculate it,
you will make a lot of money. You will definitively recuperate your initial
investment. All the initial doubts you had at the
beginning will disappear when you�ll receive your first order. Because it works !
P R O G R A M D E S C R I P T I O N
INSTRUCTIONS
This method allowing to accumulate capital works if you participate in it. This method
is not a chain of letters (nor a
pyramidal system) but a legal opportunity to make money.
Essentially, here is what we do. As for all multiple level business networks, we
construct our business by recruting new
partners and we sell them our products. In all the states of United States and in
Canada, it is legal to enlist new partners
for your business and with this method, you need a product for each amount of money
received.
Orders are sent to you by mail and you transmit your REPORTS (your products) by
e-mail, this way, you are not personally
implicated in the sale, you don�t have to do door to door sollicitation. You
accomplish all your business workin private from
your own home, your store or your office. This is the largest multiple level business
network of postal orders.
1 - ORDER THE REPORTS : Order each of the 4 REPORTS described below (you won�t be
able to sell them if you don�t order
them).
To receive each of the 4 REPORTS, send by mail to the person listed below with the
number of the REPORT:
- - a bill of $5 (or its equivalent in another currency) ;
- - the name and the # of the REPORT you are ordering ;
- - your e-mail address ;
- - your postal return address (in case of problem).
When you place an order, make sure that you are ordering each of the 4 REPORTS. You
should save each of the 4 REPORTS in your
computer in order to be able to sell them later. A few days later, you will receive,
through your electronic mailbox, these
four REPORTS. Save them in your computer : they will be accessible later when you�ll
send them to the thousands of people
that will order them.
2 - RESPECT THE ORDRE OF THE NAMES : Be very careful not to modify the names of the
persons listed besides each REPORT and
their order on the list in a way that would be different from the one mentionned in
the following steps. Otherwise, you might
as well annihilate your efforts and your potential financial gains. When you will
really understand the way that this system
works, you will see how you wouldn�t be advantaged if you changed something to the
list of names. Remerber: this method has
been tested over several years now and, if you modify it the slightest, it just might
not work anymore.
a) Take a look at the list of REPORTS available (there are 4 of them) :
b) After having ordered the 4 REPORTS and having seen them, replace the name and the
address of REPORT #1 by your own name
and address. You will then become the recognized distributer of REPORT #1. And then,
the ancien name of REPORT #1 will become
associated with #2.
c) Move the name and address that was placed next to REPORT #2 to the REPORT #3.
d) Move the name and address that was placed next to REPORT #3 to the REPORT #4.
e) The name and address of the person that was placed next to REPORT #4 is removed
from the list. This person has probably
gained a large sum of money. Once again, make sure that you carefully recopy each name
and address.
3 - SAVE THE DOCUMENTS : Entirely save this letter (including the modified names and
addresses). Make no more changes to the
instruction section.
4 - SEND THE LETTER EVERYWHERE : Frontiers don�t exist in Internet... So, don�t
hesitate to conquest foreign markets.
Your cost of participating in this project is practically worthless: $20!, and
evidently, you already have an Internet
connexion, and it doesn�t cost anything to send e-mails.
HOW TO MAKE SURE THERE WILL BE LOTS OF PEOPLE AFTER YOU
METHOD # 1 : SEND VERY LARGE QUANTITIES OF E-MAILS
Let�s say that you decide to start on a small scale, just to see how it�s going to
work. Suppose that you and the people that
follow you send 2000 programs each. Suppose also that the postal responses are on a
scale of 0,5%. (By using the right lists,
the response could be much better). Moreover, a lot of people will send thousands of
programs instead of just 2000. But, lets
continue with this example when you send 2000 programs.
With 0,5% response, there would be only 10 orders for the REPORT #1. And these 10
people would send each 2000 other programs
for a total of 20 000. Of these 20 000 people with a response of 0,5%, you would
obtain 100 orders for the REPORT #2. These
100 persons would then send 2000 programs each, for a total of 200 000 programs sent
and a response rate of 0,5% would bring
you 2000 orders for the REPORT #3.
And these 1000 persons that would send 2000 programs each for a total of 2,000,000
vous order 10,000 REPORT #4. That would be
10,000 times $5 for you. Paid in cash! Your total income for this example would be of
$50 + $500 + $5000 + $50 000 for a
total of $55,550 !!!
Don�t forget that it is by supposing that 1990 persons on 2000 won�t send anything by
mail and will throw everything in the
garbage, that you will nonetheless succeed. Try to thing about what would happen if
only half of the sollicited persons would
send 100,000 programs instead of 2000. Believe me, several persons will do exactly as
that and even more.
The REPORT #2 will explain you the best methods for transmitting large amounts of
e-mails and will indicate you also where to
get software designed for sending bulk e-mail. Moreover, this report will indicate you
where to obtain e-mail lists.
METHOD #2 : PLACE ADDS ON THE INTERNET
Advertizing on the Internet is very cheap and there exists hundreds of free web sites
where you can set advertising.
Let�s say that you decide to start on a small scale just to see how it works. Suppose
that your goal is to find 10 persons
for participating at your first level. However, if you set a lot of free advertising
on the Internet, you will get a larger
response than the 10 orders expected. But, let�s consider that you would get 10
responses at a first stage.
1st LEVEL : You get 10 members : 10 X $5 = $50
2nd LEVEL : Your 10 members recruit 10 others : 100 X $5 = $500
3rd LEVEL : These 100 persons recruit 10 others : 1000 X $5 = $5,000
4th LEVEL : These 1000 persons recruit 10 others : 10 000 X $5 = $50,000
TOTAL : $55,550
This example supposes that the participants will only recruit 10 persons each. Think
about what would happen if each person
would recruit 20 persons ! Several of these participants will obtain 100 persons and
more for their first level.
About 50,000 new persons will begin this program every month.
HERE ARE THE 4 REPORTS AND WHERE YOU CAN ORDER THEM
NOTE - Always send $5 (or its equivalent in another device) in cash for each of the 4
REPORTS.
Always send your order by postal mail with a first class service. Make sure that the
money is sufficiently hidden in the
enveloppe between 2 sheets of paper and on one of these sheets, write :
- - the # and the name of the REPORT that you are ordering ;
- - your e-mail address ;
- - your postal address ;
- - your postal address on top of the enveloppe (in case of problem).
Don�t forget to sollicitate your family and friends !

SUCCESS RULES OF THUMBS
- - Consider this plan as a business plan of your own.
- - Order the 4 REPORTS immediately! (you will have them available when orders will
start to arrive). According to the law,
when you receive an order with $5, you must send the corresponding product in order to
conform to United States and Canadian
by-laws regarding postal shipment and lotery by-laws.
- - Always provide service the same day of the reception of the order.
- - Be patient and persistant with this program. If you don�t receive 20 orders for
the REPORT #1 within 2 weeks after starting
your advertizing on the Internet, continue sending e-mails until you reach this goal.
Then, a few weeks later, you should
receive at least 100 orders for the REPORT #2. If you don�t receive this amount of
orders, continue sending more e-mails
until you reach this goal. Once you receive 100 orders or more of REPORT #2, you can
start relaxing ! From this point, the
system will fonction by itself and money will continue to circulate in the system.
IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER

Subject: Text parser
Hi,
I wanted to have my program accept parameters from a text file instead of
recompling the code everytime I want to change a few dynamic parameters.
The program is written in C, and text handling in C is quite a tedious
process (or am I mistaken?). The question is I will have identifiers and
numbers in my .rc file, which I want parsed and understood. The question
is can I find some other tool to do this and integrate it with C?
Excuse me if I am on the wrong list with this one.
Thanks,

bison? perl can interface with c. What you want sounds like maybe a
fortran namelist, so you could define that in fortran, and use f2c to
convert it to c, or g77 to compile it. If you want your rc file to be
able to assign numeric values to program variables by name, that sounds
awfully like a fortran namelist.

Subject: Re: Text parser
Hi,
Why don't you have an easy to decipher .rc file, say 1 line per
parameter, and fscanf() them as if you are reading from the keybd. I do
agree that string processing can be slightly tedious with C.. but in this
case there are not many reasons which i can think off. You can think of
interfaces with Perl , as a second option.
A good place to throw this Q would be
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
BTW, are you from the same Dartmouth which spung up Kemeny and Kurtz
(BASIC ) way nback in 1964?
Are you thinking of changing the source-code during runtime ? what would you
need identifiers for ?
Pls write back, if necessary personally, in details .

binutils 2.9.5.0.41 has Martin's patch. Let me know if anything
is wrong on Linux.

- ---
This is the beta release of binutils 2.9.5.0.41 for Linux, which is
based on binutils 2000 0502 plus various changes. It is purely for
Linux, although it has been tested on Solaris/Sparc and Solaris/x86
from time to time.
I am planning to make the public release soon. Please test it as much
as you can.
Please report any bugs related to binutils 2.9.5.0.41 to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
For arm-linux targets, there are some important differences in behaviour
between these tools and binutils 2.9.1.0.x. The linker emulation name has
changed from elf32arm{26} to armelf_linux{26}. Also, the "-p" flag must be
passed with the linker when working with object files (or static libraries)
created using older versions of the assembler. If this flag is omitted the
linker will silently generate bad output when given old input files.
To get the correct behaviour from gcc, amend the *link section of your specs
file as follows:
*link:
%{h*} %{version:-v} %{b} %{Wl,*:%*} %{static:-Bstatic} %{shared:-shared}
%{symbolic:-Bsymbolic} %{rdynamic:-export-dynamic} %{!dynamic-linker:
-dynamic-linker /lib/ld-linux.so.2} -X %{mbig-endian:-EB} %{mapcs-26:-m
armelf_linux26} %{!mapcs-26:-m armelf_linux} -p

You can use fscanf (dangerous), write your own mini parser (easy and
safer), or use one of the libraries written specifically for the
purpose. You might want to check out libproplist.

Subject: strtod - help.
Hi,
I am confused about the call and the return vals. The defn, says:
- -------------------
double strtod(const char *nptr, char **endptr)
RETURN VALUES
The strtod function returns the converted value, if any.
If endptr is not NULL, a pointer to the character after
the last character used in the conversion is stored in the
location referenced by endptr.
If no conversion is performed, zero is returned and the
value of nptr is stored in the location referenced by
endptr.
If the correct value would cause overflow, plus or minus
HUGE_VAL is returned (according to the sign of the value),
and ERANGE is stored in errno. If the correct value would
cause underflow, zero is returned and ERANGE is stored in
errno.
- -------------------
So if nptr="1000 00 junk", then the return value must be 0 and the
expression (*endptr == nptr) must be true, right? I am not able to emulate
this. What am I missing?
Thanks,

Wrong.
Conversion is performed. Glibc aims to please. strtod returns
1.000000e+03, having stopped at the blank (it will skip leading spaces,
but having got its teeth into a number, it chokes on a blank) amd endptr
will be nptr+4. Look at _all_ your results. Is the return value 0 or
NAN?
Also, read all of the fine manual:
DESCRIPTION
The strtod() function converts the initial portion of the
^^^^^
string pointed to by nptr to double representation.

The return value is (double) 1000, and if you pass a reference
to a char pointer as the second argument, it will point to the
blank between 1000 and 00 after the call.

Probably, you are missing some or all of the gnu toolchain that is
needed to compile it. I don't know kdestudio specifically, but you
cannot compile "Hello, world" without glibc-devel, gcc/egcs, binutils.
kde-anything would also need XFree86-devel also. You can tell from the

First, do declare the subroutine before you call it.
Either use a prototype, or put the function in the
source before main (). Second, you define main
as returning an int, but you don't return any.
Third, bzero only needs a char *:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
int GetCookie(char *User, char *Pass){
bzero(User,15);
bzero(Pass,15);
return(1);
}
int main (void){
char User[16], Pass[16];
GetCookie(User,Pass);
return( 0 );
}

You've got too many * and &
The & is idempotent viz applying it 'a second time' doesn't magically
create a pointer where there is none.
try it yourself:
printf ("its %p %p %p\n", User, &User, &User[0]);

Subject: Problem With fdopen
A representative program illustrating the problem:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
int main(void)
{
FILE *fp;
int fd;
fd = open("foo.c", O_RDONLY);
if (fd < 0) {
perror("foo.c: open");
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
} else
fp = fdopen(fd, "r");
if(file == NULL) {
perror("foo.c: fdopen");
close(fd);
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
} else {
fclose(fp);
close(fd);
}
exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
}
gcc (2.91) complains about implicitly declared function fdopen
and an uncast pointer:
$ gcc -ansi -Wall foo.c
foo.c: In function `main':
foo.c:18: warning: implicit declaration of function `fdopen'
foo.c:18: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast
I'm a touch stumped: fdopen is declared in <stdio.h> and most certainly
returns FILE *. If I don't use `-ansi', I get no warnings, so I'm
guessing the issue is that fdopen is POSIX.1 compliant, but not ANSI
compliant.
Thanks,
Kurt

In some C environments it's actually legal for main() to return without
a value; there the C compiler will threat this as equivalent to return 0;.
This is not true for gcc on Linux, there main() will return a random
value.
Some C compilers are fairly paranoid and will complain if you don't
properly declare the arguments for main().
Just a few notes by somebody who has been dealing with portability
problems again and again.

IANAL, but I don't think there is ever a situation in which it is "legal"
for main to return without a value, since the ANSI/ISO standard states
that main returns int. The standard does not say *which* int is returned,
but compliant compilers are required to return *some* int. I would think
that, in the environments you mention, that what main returns is up to the
compiler builder.
% Some C compilers are fairly paranoid and will complain if you don't

Complaining is the desirable behavior, IMHO. I haven't a copy of the
current or the new standard (C9X) in front of me, but I have never
quite understood why ANSI/ISO C says that main returns int but does
not require the compiler to issue a diagnostic if you declare it
as returning, say, void.

May i ask you one question?
How could I make one executable file????
I make one file and use
GCC -o file file.c
and I cannot execute the file.
The error message is the "bash : file : command not found".
Why????
Please help to resolve the problem.
Thank you. vito

execute the file like this: ./file
This is linux-gcc. The current directory is not in the search path for
commands unless you edit your shell startup file[s] and put it there,
(the folks who make distros think it is bad security policy to be able
to run things from your current directory without meaning to) so if you
want to run file in the current directory you must make explicit
reference to the current directory with ./file. Of course, absolute
pathname will also work.

Because "." is not in your current path. So,
either do a
export PATH=$PATH:.
or start your program as
./file
The second method is the preferred method.
Another typical luser error is to name test
programs "test" - and then wonder why it
does not seem to do anything :-)

Actually, because it found /usr/bin/file instead, and you failed to
provide an argument. 'file' is a unix command.
Note that it is also a bad idea to call your test program 'test'
because /usr/bin/test is aonther unix command.

True. I read file as <file> and responded that way, since the original
post contained:
> > The error message is the "bash : file : command not found".
which is a bit improbable if file is literally file.
