Compilation error in cpp file on HPUX platform

sarram — Tue, 07 Mar 2006 08:17:48 GMT

Hi,

I am trying to compile c++ file on HPUX11.11 platform. Compiler version is A.03.55.

I am getting error as shown below. But the same code worked for other platforms like solaris,linux.

Can anyone tell me what could be the reason for this error?

"Warning 134: "/opt/aCC/include/limits", line 112 # Expected 2 arguments for macro
'max'.
static inline T max () RWSTD_INLINE_NO_THROW { return RWSTD_STATIC_CAST(T,0); }
^^^
Error 20: "/opt/aCC/include/limits", line 112 # '' expected before ')'.
static inline T max () RWSTD_INLINE_NO_THROW { return RWSTD_STATIC_CAST(T,0); }
^^^
Error 19: "/opt/aCC/include/limits", line 112 # Unexpected '>'.
static inline T max () RWSTD_INLINE_NO_THROW { return RWSTD_STATIC_CAST(T,0); }
^^^
Error 24: "/opt/aCC/include/limits", line 112 # ')' expected instead of '?'.
static inline T max () RWSTD_INLINE_NO_THROW { return RWSTD_STATIC_CAST(T,0); }
^^^
Error 445: "/opt/aCC/include/limits", line 112 # Cannot recover from earlier errors.
static inline T max () RWSTD_INLINE_NO_THROW { return RWSTD_STATIC_CAST(T,0); }"

Advance Thanks

Hi

There is obviously a difference of order

Macros max has been defined earlier
in you source.You must try to include the
system file first before compiler specific and all other includes.

Thanks Steve. But why the same code is working for Solaris and Linux.

Because some of the standard header files are different. Almost certainly there is a macro "max" that is interfering. An "#undef max" will probably fix you. Note that Solaris and Linux are not using aCC so you are comparing apples and oranges.
