where can i find ni4882.h for gcc compiler?

[ssing12]

I have c code compiled on MS visual Studio 2010. Now I need to recompile same code with gcc. But I think ni4882.h is not being linked correctly. Where can I find ni4882.h for gcc compiler? I am using MingW on my windows 8 PC.

Why do you think, that ni4882.h isn't linked correctly ? Are there error messages ?

Correcly spoken ni4882.h  isn't linked. The header file is included by the preprocessor into the source code before running the compiler.

And later the library ( .lib file ) is linked  to the objectcode generated by the compiler. But you will usually need to specify on the compiler command line which library needs to be linked . And maybe also where to find the library ( IIRC gcc uses the -l and -L switches for that purpose)

 undefined reference to `FindLstn@16'
 undefined reference to `Ibsta@0'
 undefined reference to `Ibcnt@0'

Can you suggest what should be right approach to compile my c code with gcc?i thought i need right ni4882.h for gcc compiler.
