How do you include a system header file called sysheader.h in a c source file?

There is no system header called share.h, but if there were, it would be:
#include <share.h>

#include

Where you can include a header file in the program?
You can include a file with the #include directive at any place you want to. You just have to consider that the compiler will see the total source file as if you had copied the contents of each include file at the point where you included it, and it will parse and process the total source file accordingly. That said, header files, a subset of included files, are generally #include'd at the top of the source file. Again, it all depends on what is in the include file.
How can you create a headerfile in a c?
Create the header file as a .h file in the same way you create a source file, .c and place it in the same directory as the .c files. To incorporate it, use the... #include "my_header_file.h" ... directive. Note that there are double quotes instead of greater/less signs. This tells the compiler to look first in the source directory.
What does the header file in c consists of?
Headers are primarily used to separate interfaces from implementations in order to provide modularity and organisation of code. Headers typically contain declarations of related data types, classes and functions while corresponding source files contain the implementations or definitions for those types. The only real exceptions are template functions and classes which must be fully-defined within the header. By separating the interfaces from the implementations, other source files can make use of those interfaces simply by including the appropriate headers. All headers must use header guards to ensure each is only included once in any compilation. Headers can also include other headers, however this is only necessary if the header requires access to the interface contained therein. For instance, if the header declares a derived class, the base class header must be included as the derived class declaration needs to know the interface details of its base class. Similarly if a class contains an embedded class member, the interface for that member must be known. Pointers and references to types do not require interfaces, thus a forward declaration suffices. However, if a header includes an inline implementation that requires an interface (such as an accessor that returns a type by value, or that invokes a method of a type), the appropriate header for that type must be included. All types that can be forward declared in a header must be included in the header's corresponding source file. The one exception to separating interface from implementations is when creating template functions or classes. Templates must be fully-defined thus all implementation details must be available from the header alone. One way of maintaining separation is to have the header include the source file rather than the other way around. However, the inclusion must come after the interface declaration, and the source must not include the header.
What do you mean by forward declarations in c plus plus?
A forward declaration is simply a declaration of an identifier that will be defined at a later point during compilation. It is quite common to separate declarations from their definitions using header files (.h) and source files (.cpp). The header essentially contains all the forward declarations of all the definitions contained in the source file. It is also common practice to use forward declarations when a header contains pointers to a type, rather than references. If it includes references, then you must include the header file for those references, but if they are pointers then you only need a forward declaration of the type (before it is used) and the actual header that contains the full declaration can be included in the source file instead.
Why there is no need to include header files in c but it requires header files if saved with the extension of .cpp?
Not sure what you mean by not including header files in C. If header files contain declarations that are vital to your code, then you must include them. The same is true in C and C++, regardless of the file extension. Generally speaking, source files (.c and .cpp files) need to include all required headers (.h or .hpp files) while the headers themselves need only make forward declarations (known as incomplete types). There are exceptions, however. You cannot declare values of an incomplete type (only pointers and references can be incomplete), nor can you dereference an incomplete type. You also cannot derive a new class from an incomplete base class. Thus if any header falls into any of these categories then they must include the required headers rather than simply forward declare the incomplete types. Template classes are also regarded as incomplete if the entire definition is not available at the point of instantiation. For this reason, class templates cannot be split between header and source files like normal classes (the entire definition must be placed in the header) and the header must be included prior to each instantiation. Similarly with template functions.
What is the use of myconstant.h header file?
You can include it into your source.
How do you create an header file in c with example?
Any file can be called a header. Whenever someone uses #include , it's the same as copy/pasting that file in that spot. Typically though, they call it a header if it's included at the beginning of your source.
How can you create a c program without using header file?
C programs do not require header files. If you want a C program without header files, you can simply not create them. However, you may or may not be able to include your non-header file source files.
A function is declared in C header file When you try to implement in a c source file it is giving error?
The source file must include the header file. Beyond that we can only guess at the problem without seeing the content of the source and header files. Do not post the files here. Such questions are better handled by the many C programming forums available elsewhere on the Internet.
Which header has the source and destination MAC address?
data link header
What header that has source of 13357 and destination port of 23?
It is a TCP Header
I am coding OpenGL game I have to include some header files to use in many files. so that I'd an error . function template has already been defined ... any hints here?
Place header guards around your header files to prevent them being included more than once during a compilation, regardless of how many files include them.E.g., if your header file is called MyClass.h, use the following template:#ifndef _MYCLASS_H_#define _MYCLASS_H_// all header code goes here#endif _MYCLASS_H_Header guards are typically in all upper case (as per all macro definitions) based upon the filename with leading and trailing underscores and an underscore replacing the period.Microsoft C++ also permits the use of the #pragma oncecompiler directive to achieve the same end. Most programmers use both conventions for portability.Note that not all headers need to include other headers. Forward declarations often suffice for headers unless the header requires access to a concrete type. As a rule of thumb, use a forward declaration in the header and an include in the source file. If the compiler complains about incomplete types within your header, include the required header in your header, remove the forward declaration, and remove the include from the source.

Contrast the IPv4 and the IPv6 header fields?
Simplified header format. IPv6 has a fixed length header, which does not include most of the options an IPv4 header can include. Even though the IPv6 header contains two 128 bit addresses (source and destination IP address) the whole header has a fixed length of 40 bytes only. This allows for faster processing. Options are dealt with in extension headers, which are only inserted after the IPv6 header if needed. So for instance if a packet needs to be fragmented, the fragmentation header is inserted after the IPv6 header. The basic set of extension headers is defined in RFC 2460.

What is the header in C programming language?
A haeder is a text-file, meant to include (#include) into a source-file. Usually it contains variable and function declarations, constants, type-definitions, documentation.
