My Goal is to get outputs from Dining Philosophers C Program. I am using Visual Studio 2013 on Windows 7 to compile and execute C programs. Got errors stating that pthread.h, semaphore.h were not available. Downloaded the same for windows build and included in the project.
Now I get the following 8 errors
warning C4013: 'sleep' undefined; assuming extern returning int
error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp__sem_init referenced in function _main
error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp__sem_wait referenced in function _put_fork
error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp__sem_post referenced in function _put_fork
error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp__pthread_create referenced in function _main
error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp__pthread_join referenced in function _main
error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _sleep referenced in function _philospher
error LNK1120: 6 unresolved externals
The Code I have used is`
#include<stdio.h>
#include<semaphore.h>
#include<pthread.h>
#define N 5
#define THINKING 0
#define HUNGRY 1
#define EATING 2
#define LEFT (ph_num+4)%N
#define RIGHT (ph_num+1)%N
sem_t mutex;
sem_t S[N];
void * philospher(void *num);
void take_fork(int);
void put_fork(int);
void test(int);
int state[N];
int phil_num[N] = { 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 };
int main()
{
int i;
pthread_t thread_id[N];
sem_init(&mutex, 0, 1);

}
}
