Errors while compiling hite.c file

[priyashmistry]

I was trying to run hite.c file in compiler (CodeBlocks, OS: Windows 10), and while compiling I received this error. Can someone please check this out:

||=== Build file: "no target" in "no project" (compiler: unknown) ===|
C:\Users\computer\Downloads\HITE-master\hite.c||In function 'ReadOptions':|
C:\Users\computer\Downloads\HITE-master\hite.c|200|warning: implicit declaration of function 'getline'; did you mean 'GetLine'? [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]|
C:\Users\computer\Downloads\HITE-master\hite.o:hite.c|| undefined reference to `getline'|
||error: ld returned 1 exit status|
||=== Build failed: 2 error(s), 1 warning(s) (0 minute(s), 0 second(s)) ===|

Note: Already tried changing getline with GetLine, nothing worked.

Hi Priyash, Sorry to hear this code gave you some trouble. Can you say a little bit more about how you compiled it? Which OS? I just recloned and ran:

gcc -o hite hite.c -lm

and it worked fine for me.

[priyashmistry]

I'm using CodeBlocks (https://www.codeblocks.org/) on windows 10 for compilation.

Hello Prof. the command "gcc -o hite hite.c -lm" works fine, but hite earth.in gives an error stating "Command 'hite' not found", seems like hite is been treated as linux command

PS: I am using Linux Mint

[RoryBarnes]

Did you try

./hite earth.in

? I haven't used Mint before, but maybe it requires being very clear about the path?

Hello sir, when i run 'hite earth.in" i got some problem like "ERROR: Expected option NumPlanets, found option α↕@.
Line: 66", can you help me with this problem?

[RoryBarnes]

It's not obvious to me what the issue is from your comment. The first option in earth.in is NumPlanets, so I don't know why it would be reporting an error on line 66. Did you modify earth.in in some way? Does running 'hite kepler452b.in' produce a similar error?

[nurwannn]

Yes, running hite kepler452b.in
I following this flow

1. Download source code in githubg
2. Install GCC on my windows
3. Open cmd
4. Hit "GCC hite.c"
5. And then hit "a earth.in", or "hite earth.in"
6. And three is an error like i send before

Please tell me if i forget some step to use your code, i hope you can help me for this problem, thankyou before

Best regard

For note, i use originaly file from your file .tar

[RoryBarnes]

It looks like you're running from a Windows prompt, which is something I haven't tried before. For scientific computing I strongly recommend using the freely available Windows Subsystem for Linux. From there, you may need to install gcc. Once you've confirmed gcc is installed, the commands should be

tar xvfz HITE.tar.gz
gcc -o hite hite.c -lm
./hite earth.in

(I think.) Let me know if that works for you and if so, I will update the README. Thanks for your interest in this code!
