That header file is deprecated, use #include instead share|improve this answer edited Aug 4 '12 at 10:47 answered Aug 4 '12 at 10:29 YePhIcK 2,72721034 but,gcc gives error on including it –user1526667 Aug 4 '12 at 10:42 gcc 4.3 removed this header file. Read more here: gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.3/porting_to.html –YePhIcK Aug 4 '12 at 10:45 add a comment| up vote 5 down vote It's for dynamic memory allocation, but it isn't a ANSI C standard library. If you are using gcc then use stdlib for dynamic memory allocation: #include For some more information, have a look here. If you read carefully the question you have linked, actually the problem was exactly trying to compile with gcc including that header. So don't use it. share|improve this answer edited Aug 4 '12 at 10:52 answered

There is no need to include , just use . Quzah. Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.

I installed gcc and netbeans with the c/c++ package. Now I got this piece of code that I want to run but the comiling already goes wrong with the first #include statement. When I compile something with Code: #include #include The inclusion goes perfect, no problems. However, this other code has: Code: #include "ALLOC.H" #include "DOS.H" #include "CONIO.H" #include "STDIO.H" in the preamble. This goes wrong (newmain.c:14:19: error: alloc.h: No such file or directory). Now I remember that there is a difference between the <> and the "" symbols. So I tried both, and also both in upper and lowercase. Nothing worked. What should I do to get it compiled?

DOS.H should be a dead give away. You are not using DOS alloc.h, dos.h, and conio.h are not standard. They are Windows (DOS) specific.
