gcc giving compilation warning incompatible implicit declartion of function printf()

[Alexpo]

Hi,

After installing Ubuntu to my laptop which is a dual boot vth XP I was trying gcc is working or not.

When I tried to compile a simple porogram naming test.c placed inmy home directory..its gives two warnings

1) incompatible implicit declartion of built in function printf()

2) incompatible implicit declartion of built in function exit()

ussr/bin/ld: crtl.o : No such file or directory
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

here is content of my test.c file

#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
printf("hello");
exit(1);
}

What are the things i am missing ?

Thanks for ur time,
Alexpo

Have you installed the build-essential package?

[LaRoza]

sudo aptitude install build-essential

[Alexpo]

Is the command is exactly like :

sudo aptitute install build-essential

I got the msg aptitute as not recognised.

I did not get any help from OS help or mannual regarding it .

Will you pls, inform me more clearly how do i install build essentials.
(I do have a CD Desktop edn for Gusty Gibbon from internet only and no network connection).

Thanks again

Try "aptitude", not "aptitute".

It worked.
Ooops ...I am sorry for assuming aptitude as aptitude.

Thanks
