Then enter any questions. If you don't know anything about programming, helping you to compile code is going to be difficult, especially trying to explain the details.

You won't find winsock2.h on Linux. The others are standard headers, if your compiler can't find them, your compiler is not installed correctly. Porting software between the two operating systems is not a trivial task, especially when you are using networking or filesystem libraries. You also need to make sure you are linking against the correct libraries. Using header files is not the same as linking against libraries. > Question: Copy bibiotecas those who are on Windows inside of Linux work? > Or addition to copy something has to set Environment Variables? In general, you can't use Windows libraries directly on Linux (there is wine, but let's not confuse the issue right now, it's not a trivial exercise). > Another thing that I've been researching are the equivalents, eg > winshock2.h (Windows) socks.h (I think that's it - Linux), if so I have > to change my includes libraries for Linux right? It's not that simple. Linux uses Unix socket libraries. Also, you are confusing headers with libraries, they are not the same thing. -- Brett W.
