Firm_event Error In Compilation -Please Help!

Question

Hi I'm trying to read data from a USB BARCODE SCANNER
I've written a little sample code... But It refuses to Compile.
Please If anyone could help me with definitions.
Thanks !

exit (1);
if ((rval = ioctl(fd, I_PUSH,"usbkbm")) < 0 ) {
exit (1);
while (read(fd, &fe, sizeof(fe))) {
printf("\n");
printf("%d", fe.id);
printf("%d", fe.value);

Hello.
You must include the firm events include file before <sys/vuid_queue.h>.
This file is named something like <sys/vuid_event.h> or <sys/firm_event.h> (I'm not 100% sure):
#include <sys/vuid_event.h>
#include <sys/vuid_queue.h>
I hope this helps.
