Hi,

I'm trying to port to DOS a WIN32 C++ application I've programmed using C++ STL. I'm using DMC 8.29b with STLPort 4.5.3.

Other than the DMC's limitations with namespaces and templates which I had to adjust my sources to, everything seems to work fine now. But there's a problem : my application still won't compile because it uses <list>. Why is it so? Is it because I shouldn't use at all <list> (or <vector> also, which didn't work too) with DMC, for the same template limitations that forced me to not use my class templates from the original app?

Here's what I run :

DMC MyApp -a1 -Aa -Ab -Ae -Ar
-I\dm\stlport\stlport \dm\lib\stlport_dm_static.lib

And the result (a little reformatted for you):

struct _List_node_base {
^
c:\document\developpement\dm\stlport\stlport\stl/_list.h(60) :
Error: malformed template declaration

};
^
c:\document\developpement\dm\stlport\stlport\stl/_list.h(63) :
Error: illegal combination of types

--- errorlevel 1


Thank you!

I've never tried STLport on anything else than Win32 - so the STLport configuration probably assumes to be compiled for Win32.

Can you please post a minimal example/test-case for the problem - the compiler output alone isn't all that useful without the source-code.

...and what have you contributed to the Net?

Can you post an exemplifying set of sources and your project file?

In fact the error was generated in STLPort's _list.h when the compiler was parsing <list>. I just found it was caused by other parts of my own code. I still was trying to use 'using namespace std;' directives. Thank you.
