pcap.h header file problem
anyone kn开发者_JS百科ow how to fix the problem regarding header file in ubuntu 10.10. I am executing a sniffing program which makes use of this header file. My system shows libcap package is installed. Still, on compiling the code, an error is coming which reads:
fatal error: pcap.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated.
Please help me out.
Thanks all:)
The system won't let me correct Eric Fossum's comment, because I lack reputation. There is a typo ("libcap" vs. "libpcap") and his suggested command should read the following:
sudo apt-get install libpcap-dev
sudo apt-get install libpcap0.8-dev
If you are using yum, then
sudo yum install install libpcap-devel
You don't have the pcap.h file in your include path. You need to add the location of pcap.h to your include path when compiling:
-I/path/to/pcap.h
If you're using linuxbrew, you can just brew install libpcap
. In my case I was trying to install nethogs
and it failed with this error.
First install libpcap:
sudo apt-get install libpcap0.8-dev
then create its shortcut for header file:
ln -s /usr/include/pcap/bpf.h /usr/include/net/bpf.h
