mac-os: Using a home-built compiler leads to fatal error: 'stdio.h' file not found
I've found a way. If we are using Xcode 10, you will notice that if you navigate to the /usr in the Finder, you will not see a folder called 'include' any more, which is why the terminal complains of the absence of the header files which is contained inside the 'include' folder. In the Xcode 10.0 Release Notes, it says there is a package:
/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/Packages/macOS_SDK_headers_for_macOS_10.14.pkg
and you should install that package to have the /usr/include folder installed. Then you should be good to go.
open /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/Packages/macOS_SDK_headers_for_macOS_10.14.pkg
