c++ - Compiler debug enhancement request

↑ ↓ ← Damian <damiandixon netscape.net> writes:
Walter,

Any chance of getting the compiler to output where it saw the previous 
definition?

This would make my life a lot easier.

D:\CVS\STL\STLport-1115\stlport\stl/_construct.h(56) : Error: '_Destroy' 
is already defined

Thanks

Walter,

I think I may have asked for the wrong enhancement.

I believe that '_Destroy' may be a compiler generated construct?

If it is is there away of getting of compiler to say so? (enhancement :> 
please, or possible list the definitions the compiler assumes/creates)

I already use grep... but I am spoilt with the HP-UX ANSI C++ compiler, 
which tells me where a previous definition was defined and also gives 
suggestions of possible matches if it can't find a definition 
(inconsistent spelling).

Regards
Damian

No, _Destroy() is defined in stl_construct.h

I agree that the compiler would be improved if it did say where the other
one was.

Walter,

The problem is more complex then I originally thought.

It appears to be related to template instantiation. I will try and
look deeper and create a small example.

Is there anyway of getting the compiler to print out information about 
which templates it has found?

Regards
Damian

How I find template instantiation bugs is by whittling away the source till
I find the smallest that shows it. The stl is just too big and complicated
to isolate things down otherwise.

Are you trying to compile STLport with namespaces enabled? Then I guess it's the same bug I reported on Nov 11 (subject: "template functions and namespaces") in this newsgroup. bye, Christof -- http://cmeerw.cjb.net JID: cmeerw jabber.at mailto cmeerw at web.de ...and what have you contributed to the Net?

Actually I think the problem is with templates....

Still looking slowly at the problem.

I have run out of project work, so I've been rewriting our training 
material and giving training course around Europe.

The problem with doing training is you seem to have to know a lot more 
then you think and it takes up so much time, each customer seems to want 
training in different aspects of the products!!
