Hello
I've included below build output. I'm using a x86_64 machine, and testing -m32
Can a more appropriate message be provided? The solution is to install
gcc-multilib package on ubuntu... but a clearer message would be helpful...
jonny@ubuntu1404:~/code$ gcc -O2 -Wall -Wextra -Wpedantic -m32 -o main main.c
In file included from /usr/include/stdio.h:27:0,
from main.c:3:
/usr/include/features.h:367:25: fatal error: sys/cdefs.h: No such file or
directory
compilation terminated.
//gcc -O2 -Wall -Wextra -Wpedantic -m32 -o main main.c
#include <stdio.h>
int main (void)
{
size_t value = 0;
size_t result = value - 1;
printf("result: %zu\n", result);
return 0;
}
