Where to find stdint.h, inttypes.h, ect

[XCIV]

I looked them up and they seem to be apart of the standard C Library. Great. Where the hell do I find this illusive mythical library?!

I'm not going to hunt down each file unless I absolutely have to, I downloaded stdint.h, it required inttypes.h so I download it and it required two more files. So I'm assuming they're all in a pick pack.

Where do I find all these files?

OS? Compiler "package"?
I know absolutely nothing from what you say, and header files are only supposed to refer. The key word is "standard" - multiple different implementations.

They should come with your compiler, and be installed (as part of the compiler installation) to a place where the compiler knows to look by default, so that you can just #include them in your programs and don't have to worry about where they're actually located.

Sorry forgot to mention I have Visual Studio 2009.

They don't come with the compiler otherwise I'd not be searching for them -.-

Download MinGW.

Are you sure?

Is this an attempt at being funny?

Wow, jokes on me, 2008 I meant (can't use the edit button due to the proxy I'm using won't allow me)

Still doesn't change my situation.

I'll try getting MinGW

Yes

stdint.h was first introduced in the C99 standard which is after C++ was standardized.

[editline]10:24AM[/editline]

Apparently, C++ was updated, but MSVC wasn't. MSVC 2010 has the stdint library, but you can download the library for 2008 [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stdint.h#Downloads]here[/url].

MSVC and friends have a nasty habit of breaking and not supporting standards.

That said these are C libraries, not C++ libraries noctune, yes there is a difference.

And it's crazy that 2008 doesn't support C99 properly, considering the 99 is from 1999, and the 2008 means the year 2008.

I didn't say it was a c++ library. :confused:

Anyways, it seems like boost's solution is as compiler-independent as you can get, so you might just want to use that.

[blankthemuffin]

You keep mentioning C++ and boost which have absolutely nothing to do with this.

I thought that C++ was updated in '03 to C99. Turns out that was just a small update to fix errors and C++ was updated with C in 99. :downs:

Boost provides a stdint replacement because a lot of implementations lack them. How is that not relevant?

[ZeekyHBomb]

It's not relevant by being a C++ library.
Boosts stdint-header uses features, that are not C standard.
Also, C++03 is not fully compatible with C99.
