gcc compile error about vector

HI, when I try the following code, I get a compile error with gcc3.3
under mac OS.

int fill;

struct emp{
int f;
};

#include <vector>

void test(void)
{
std::vector<emp> vt;

vt.resize(2);
}

run 'gcc -x c++ -c -o t.o t.cpp'
gcc can't compile that code.

I'd appreciate any help on this issue.

Under Linux I get an error saying (amongst other things)

foo.cc:1: error: `fill' is not a function,
/usr/include/g++/bits/stl_algobase.h:561: error: conflict with `void
std::fill(char*, char*, const char&)'

which goes away when I comment out the "int fill;" line.

re: gcc compile error about vector

I can't comment out the variant that named fill, because 'fill' is
defined by standard Quick Time's header in my project.

Do you have any more suggestion?

thanks for your help.

More recent versions of g++ do not have this problem. You might want to
upgrade.

Also, asking on a gcc mailing list may be more helpful.

The versions that do have this problem are very old and outdated.

There also is the newsgroup gnu.g++.help

Very old? The version gcc-3.3.6, which suffers from this defect, was
released half a year ago. Also, it happens to be the default g++ on my
Gentoo box. I figure, those versions must still be pretty widely used: more
recent versions are also much more standard compliant (as opposed to a lot
of the code that you need the compiler to compile).

Hmm, sorry. Then it's not the bug I was thinking about.

putting the code in a namespace?
