I am trying to compile a C++ program, and I keep on getting the following errors. I am using Cygwin, and of course GCC. I have checked to make sure there are no syntax errors. -------- ERRORS ------------- In file included from main.c:25: main.h:37: parse error before '*' token main.h:37: `uint32_t' declared as function returning a function main.h:55: parse error before "get_cipher_func" main.h:55: warning: no semicolon at end of struct or union main.h:56: warning: data definition has no type or storage class main.h:58: parse error before '}' token In file included from main.c:26: ssl2.h:55: field `cipher' declared as a function ssl2.h:56: field `ciphers' declared as a function ssl2.h:62: parse error before "host" ssl2.h:63: parse error before "host" main.c:33: field `func_addr' declared as a function main.c:41: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast main.c:46: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast main.c:52: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast main.c:58: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast main.c:64: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast main.c:69: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast main.c:74: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast main.c:79: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast main.c:84: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast main.c:89: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast main.c:95: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast main.c:101: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast main.c:106: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast main.c:111: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast main.c:116: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast main.c:121: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast main.c:126: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast main.c:131: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast main.c:136: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast main.c:141: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast main.c:146: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast main.c:151: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast main.c: In function `info_leak': main.c:238: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type main.c:238: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type main.c:249: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type main.c:250: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type main.c: In function `send_shellcode': main.c:274: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type main.c:294: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type main.c:294: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type main.c:314: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type main.c:314: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type main.c:333: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type main.c:333: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type main.c: In function `main': main.c:369: `in_addr_t' undeclared (first use in this function) main.c:369: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once main.c:369: for each function it appears in.) main.c:369: parse error before "host" main.c:437: `host' undeclared (first use in this function) main.c:437: parse error before ')' token ----------- END ERRORS -------------- ----------- Start Code -------------- /* host to big endian conversions */ #define htobes(i, p) if ( (((uint8_t*)p)[0] = (((i) >> 8) & 0xff)) | \ (((uint8_t*)p)[1] = ((i) & 0xff)) ) {} #define htobel(i, p) if ( (((uint8_t*)p)[0] = (((i) >> 24) & 0xff)) | \ (((uint8_t*)p)[1] = (((i) >> 16) & 0xff)) | \ (((uint8_t*)p)[2] = (((i) >> 8) & 0xff)) | \ (((uint8_t*)p)[3] = ((i) & 0xff)) ) {} /* host to little endian conversions */ #define htoles(i, p) if ( (((uint8_t*)p)[1] = (((i) >> 8) & 0xff)) | \ (((uint8_t*)p)[0] = ((i) & 0xff)) ) {} #define htolel(i, p) if ( (((uint8_t*)p)[3] = (((i) >> 24) & 0xff)) | \ (((uint8_t*)p)[2] = (((i) >> 16) & 0xff)) | \ (((uint8_t*)p)[1] = (((i) >> 8) & 0xff)) | \ (((uint8_t*)p)[0] = ((i) & 0xff)) ) {} /* big endian to host conversions */ #define betohs(p) ( (((uint32_t)((uint8_t*)p)[0]) << 8) | \ (((uint32_t)((uint8_t*)p)[1])) ) #define betohl(p) ( (((uint32_t)((uint8_t*)p)[0]) << 24) | \ (((uint32_t)((uint8_t*)p)[1]) << 16) | \ (((uint32_t)((uint8_t*)p)[2]) << 8) | \ (((uint32_t)((uint8_t*)p)[3])) ) /* little endian to host conversions */ #define letohs(p) ( (((uint32_t)((uint8_t*)p)[1]) << 8) | \ (((uint32_t)((uint8_t*)p)[0])) ) #define letohl(p) ( (((uint32_t)((uint8_t*)p)[3]) << 24) | \ (((uint32_t)((uint8_t*)p)[2]) << 16) | \ (((uint32_t)((uint8_t*)p)[1]) << 8) | \ (((uint32_t)((uint8_t*)p)[0])) ) typedef uint32_t (*get_cipher_func)(unsigned char*, int);

Looks like you have problems with the declarations. get_cipher - a function pointer or whatever it is suppose to be... you got it wrong either way. When you fix that you will get rid of most of your parcing errors. And check your pointers

Try adding the definitions for uint32_t and uint8_t before your typedefs. Looks like it doesn't know what uint32_t is. Probably something like typedef unsigned long uint32_t;
