linking standard C funtions

linking standard C funtions

[Aaron Case]

Hello,

I am having a strange problem that should have a simple fix but probably
dosent.

I cant get the compiler to recognize standard library functions(strstr ultoa
strcat strcat).  I have the appropriate header files included and all
packages are added to the library archive.

Seems like its should be a linking problem right?

Hmm...  Capital C in the extension?  This means the program is being
parsed as C++, so declarations must be present . itoa(), not being a
C standard function, is not declared in any of the C standard
headers, so you get this error.

If you want the program to be compiled as C, that is more lenient to
lack of declarations, rename the file such that the extension is .c,
or add `-x c' before the file name in the command line.
