C linkage problem with ACE on windows

[martinbriefcase]

Compiling a program using ACE + MSVC++8, got lots of errors and some
are listed as below:

Error 2 error C2894: templates cannot be declared to have 'C'
linkage c:\program files\microsoft visual studio
8\vc\include\iosfwd 39
Error 39 error C2733: second C linkage of overloaded function
'ACE_OS::atoi' not
allowed c:\tmp\ace+tao+ciao\ace_wrappers\ace\os_ns_stdlib. h 79
Error 41 error C2733: second C linkage of overloaded function
'ACE_OS::getenv' not
allowed c:\tmp\ace+tao+ciao\ace_wrappers\ace\os_ns_stdlib. h 116
...
...
When i changed #include <string> to #include <string.h> i got no errors
concerning iosfwd but the rest don't go away.
The config.h of ACE contains the following line:
#define ACE_HAS_STANDARD_CPP_LIBRARY 1
#include "ace/config-win32.h"
The version of ACE is Release,v 4.13 2005/08/05

It can be compiled on Linux/Unix and I suspect there is something wrong
with the installation of ACE. Does anyone has experienced the
same/similar problem before????

I cleaned all the object files and rebuilt again and this time i got
different errors. The following code is the fragement of the whole
AmmUtils.h file and can anyone be kind to tell me what's wrong with my
code?

Methinks you are probably lacking namespace qualification of
std::string (unless one of those other headers nastily puts a using
declaration in the header). Change each appearance of string to
std::string, or make a private alias, e.g.:

class A
{
typedef std::string string;
public:
A( const string& s );
};

Cheers! --M

If the ACE headers are '*.h' instead of '*.hpp', you may have to
tell MSVC that they are C++ files (via the -Tp compiler switch if
I remember correctly). The error message seems to suggest that MSVC thinks
everything is 'C' instead of C++.

You might get more info help in an MSVC newsgroup.
