Re: [Bacnet-developers] Newer to BACnet stack

Hi Peter,

readrange demo seems not be finished yet. I copied makefile from server 
demo and changed TARGET to readrange, then make it in ubuntu. I got some 
errors:

main.c:34:19: error: conio.h: No such file or directory
main.c: In function ‘main’:
main.c:310: warning: implicit declaration of function ‘_stricmp’
main.c:362: warning: implicit declaration of function ‘_kbhit’
main.c:363: warning: implicit declaration of function ‘toupper’
main.c:363: warning: implicit declaration of function ‘_getch’
main.c:287: warning: unused variable ‘iLimit’
main.c:285: warning: unused variable ‘iType’
make: *** [main.o] Error 1

It seems ubuntu not support conio.h.

Regards,

Weiping
