int to char > Can't find stdlib.h

i'm using stdlib.h in an arduino08 program to send IR sensor reading to Flash - more specifically, to use an itoa function (int to string conversion). i have a line that says "#include <stdlib.h>" at the beginning.

when i compile it though, i get a "java.io.fileNotFoundException" error -- i am guessing it means it can't find the library file.

on my Mac, the file is located in "/Applications/_Dev/arduino-0008/tools/avr/avr/include/stdlib.h."
how can I tell arduino to find the lib there? is there any way to use an absolute path?

when I go to sketch > import menu I only see: EEPROM, Matrix, SoftwareSerial, SoftwareSerial_original, Stepper, Wire.

deadline soon -- any help would be appreciated :o

You don't need to #include <stdlib.h> - it's already done for you by the Arduino software. You should be able to just use itoa().

Thank you for such a quick reply!

After seeing your reply, I noticed same java.io.FileNotFound error for all sketches, not just this one.

When I restarted Arduino08 IDE, it compiled OK.
