Hi! I'm learning C.
I want to use strtok_r instead of strtok, but I can't use it although I included "string.h".
How to active this function? I've tried define __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ 1 but not success.
#define __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ 1
#include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>
int main(void) {
char s[]="I'm going to eat a snack hihi";
char *k;
while(!(char *p=strtok_r(s," ",&k)))
puts(s);
getchar();
return 0;
}
/*

Another question that when I build above code it give me a ton of errors, I think that I can declare a variable inside a loop at it has allowed since C99, but when I declare a variable inside while loop I get some errors, can someone explain why? Thanks for reading my first post in this box.
The function strtok_r() comes from POSIX (which lives in Unix, mostly).
The Windows equivalent, according to this StackOverflow thread (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9021502/whats-the-difference-between-strtok-r-and-strtok-s-in-c), is strtok_s().
So simply use strtok_s() instead of strtok_r().
