Issue while using the make command!!

[aj280192]

Hi Author,

I am getting the below error while using the make command.

verse.cpp: In function 'void* aligned_malloc(size_t, size_t)': verse.cpp:80:5: error: 'posix_memalign' was not declared in this scope 80 | if (posix_memalign(&result, align, size)) result = 0; | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~ make: *** [makefile:22: verse] Error 1

How can I fix this issue??

Hey, which compiler are you using?

[aj280192]

I am using g++ compiler on windows!! Also, I have dropped a mail can you confirm if you have received it.

Are you using WSL? It seems that Windows version does not come with OpenMP, you'd probably need visual studio to compile the thing, or search for ways to use OpenMP within Windows WSL gcc.

My bandwith on answering things is currently limited, I'm trying to process things FIFO.

Ya you are right.. when I complied just verse.cpp using -fopenmp... maybe I need to make changes to the make file to use -fopenmp?

It doesn't seem to be an OpenMP issue. GCC on Windows doesn't seem to support the memory alignment. You can replace

void *result; if (posix_memalign(&result, align, size)) result = 0;

with something like results = malloc(size);
