Hi,

Mar 13, 2009  ' Permission denied ld returned 1 exit status ' Good to know that at the moment when i trying to recompile my program, it's not running in background but i still have this big problem for me. Can anyone help me, because this make me crazy. This means you forgot to include a main function anywhere in your program. If you're a beginner and using gcc from the command line, you might try starting with a gcc tutorial that explains some basic things about using it.

I'm still a beginner for C programming. In my assignment I've encountered this problem and I know is a linker problem but I'm not sure how to solve it. I'm trying to link 3 files which 2 .c files and 1 .h file. Below are the codes for my file:

These 3 files are my codings. I hope someone can help me out. I'm stuck at his problem for long time. Thanks in advance. Appreciate your help.

I think you mean Ld returned 1 exit status.

Do you really mean you tried to link the 2 c files and the h file or do you mean you compiled the c files and tried to link the resulting objects?

The processor of building a program is

Id Returned 1 Exit Status

  • Compile each individual source (.c) file producing an object file (.o or .obj)
  • Link all the object files produced in stage 1 with any require libraries

NOTE 1: you neither compile or link header (.h) files, they are included into source (.c) files and the code the contain is compiled in that manner.

NOTE 2: It is very poor practice to #include source files (.c) into other source files (.c) as you have done in your driver.c listing. However if you must/do do that then you should not separately compile the source (.c) that you included.

Normally the IDE handles the build process for you so it would help us to know what tools, compiler tool-chain and/or IDE you are using.
