[solved]Compiling error in CEGUIString.h

[jacmoe]

I can't see any errors.
Could be a typo in your other files. It most often is.
However, I load TaharezLookSkin.scheme, instead of TaharezLook.scheme. That's the only obvious difference..

I am quite sure its not a typo, because when I comment out all that has to do with CEGUI and the frame listener, I get it to run just fine.

You might try adding:

Code: Select all

#define NOMINMAX

prior to any line that includes any Win32 headers (watch out for where they may get implicitly included), or move your lines that undefine min/max to be after the Win32 includes but before any others.

Nope...

Nothing seems to help.

Tried defining it in the code where you said, I even tried defining it in the preprossesor. No change.

I'm just about to give up.

1>herbert_game.cpp
1>c:\ogresdk\include\cegui\ceguistring.h(644) : error C2059: syntax error : 'constant'
1>c:\ogresdk\include\cegui\ceguistring.h(645) : error C2334: unexpected token(s) preceding '{'; skipping

When I get strange errors in files that should be fine I blame the file before it. herbert_game.cpp was getting compiled when the errors were thrown so look there. Check for missing semi-colons especially on the ends of classes.

Also under project settings check what character set you are using. If its not "Not set", try compiling with that setting to see what happens.

Awesome suggestion. I've been burnt by this before and if you don't know about it, it can be a time vortex...

ER.

Okey after what earthsruler said I began moving the includes around, just to see what would happen :p.

When i moved

Code: Select all

#include <CEGUI/CEGUI.h>
#include <CEGUI/CEGUISystem.h>
#include <CEGUI/CEGUISchemeManager.h>
#include <OgreCEGUIRenderer.h>

into the herbert_game.h file all of a sudden everything compiled perfectly.

My troubles are finally over. Thanks for all the help, I really appreciate it.
