How do I find the dependencies for a program before trying to compile it?
- by Ubuntu_beginner
I was trying to cross-compile a program for ARM.
While compiling I was very much irritated as I had to look for a number of dependencies e.g fatal error: abc/xyz.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated.
After ensuring that compiler gets the missing files, when I recompiled, I got same error for about 30 files.
I have no idea if that is normal behaviour.
If it is normal, is there a method which can help the compiler find the dependencies on its own?
If that is not normal, then please explain what I'm doing wrong.
