My Crystal Ball is in service - overheated again...
WHAT header you are missing, exactly?
And before you answer that, you do aware, that mixing POSIX and Windows native
API calls is generally considered not a very good idea, right?
Depends on the kind of mix (stirred, not shaken?), you may be on a very sharp
edge of things.
Without looking at your code, one possible solution is to push all
platform-dependent code into a separate library, and load it at runtime.
