io.h not found CLion in Ubuntu 20.04

I am trying to run a c++ code however, io.h is not found.

'io.h' file not found

It is shown as

#include <io.h>

enter image description here

Additionally, I am getting a bunch of weird problems (for a code that is rather > 16 years old):

 Use of undeclared identifier '_read'

or

Unknown type name '__int64'; did you mean '__int64_t'?

or

Use of undeclared identifier '_O_RDONLY'

or

Use of undeclared identifier '_lseeki64'; did you mean 'fseeko64'?

or

Cannot initialize a parameter of type 'FILE *' (aka '_IO_FILE *') with an lvalue of type 'int'

or

Use of undeclared identifier '_lseek'; did you mean 'fseek'?

or

Use of undeclared identifier '_close'

I wonder if these are related to io.h not being found.

Solution

  • Add compiler directives to manage multi-os compilation.

    //old line: #include<io.h>
#ifdef _WIN32
    #include <io.h>
#elif __linux__
    #include <inttypes.h>
    #include <unistd.h>
    #define __int64 int64_t
    #define _close close
    #define _read read
    #define _lseek64 lseek64
    #define _O_RDONLY O_RDONLY
    #define _open open
    #define _lseeki64 lseek64
    #define _lseek lseek
    #define stricmp strcasecmp
#endif
//SAF_Handle.cpp line:458 old line:INFILE = _open(infilename, _O_RDONLY | _O_BINARY);
#ifdef __linux__
  INFILE = _open(infilename, _O_RDONLY);
#elif
  INFILE = _open(infilename, _O_RDONLY | _O_BINARY);
#endif

    Fixed a few loops where the iterator variable 'i' was undeclared.
