PDBlib

[Sova]

Hi,
has anybody had any experience in using this c++ library? (
http://www.sdsc.edu/pb/pdblib/pdblib.html )
I can find very little helpfull info about it online, and i've got some
problems in getting it up and running.

I'm using the 2.2 version.
Does this library support windows platform?
When i try to compile it i get a bunch of errors (and i do as the readme
says). Tried using 3 different compilers (djgpp's, mingw, and VC++), with no
luck.
For instance, when i do this:
make libpdbpp.a (as in the readme)
mingw reports errors as
"list.h: In member function 'void ArrayListMgr<T>::operator++()':
list.h:127: error: '_element' undeclared (first use this function)"
and more of the type (only in different functions and classes).
(_element is a protected variable inside as different class, that this one
has inherited)
There are also other variables as such.

I haven't got a clue of what to do, so please help me...

Thank you for any assistance!

You are unlikely to get help with the use of a specific library here.
And rare are people who would download a whole library and test it
only to answer a question.

All I can suggest:
- try contacting the authors of the library, or search for other
formus/users of it
- for assistance with a specific C++ issue, try extracting and
posting relevant source code...

Sorry I can't be of much assistance...

Thanks anyway!

I managed to solve the problem, that wasn't really all that library related,
as much as it had to do with the compiler.
Turns out that newer versions of gcc comply more strictly to the ISO
standard, and this library didn't...
So i had to manualy correct all of the bugs in the code, and there where
lot's of them.

The problem i mentioned can be solved if you put the scope definition in
front of the variable that is used, which is inside the inherited class.
I don't know if there is another way, but this worked.
There were also some minor problems, but nothing a little googling can't
solve... :)

Hope this helps somebody.

Bye,
ivan
