c++ - Environment issue with STLPort?

reply Berin Loritsch <bloritsch d-haven.org> writes:
I am trying to compile using STLPort with the CD version of Digital Mars 
Compiler, and I am using the proper command line options:

dmc -w -cpp -I/dm/stlport/stlport -Iinclude src\context.cpp 
-obuild\context.obj -mn

But I still get two errors:

C:\dm\bin\..\stlport\stlport\stl/_alloc.h(134) : Error: undefined 
identifier '__stl_new'
C:\dm\bin\..\stlport\stlport\stl/_alloc.h(135) : Error: undefined 
identifier '__stl_delete'


My code was working with the GCC compiler without issues before, so this 
is something unique to the DMC setup.  The /dm/include doesn't have any 
STL references, and I killed the %INCLUDE% environment variable, all to 
no effect.

Any ideas what is going on?

Try cutting the context.cpp file down to the minimum that generates the
error.

You can also try grepping for where __stl_new is defined in the stlport
code.

__stl_new is defined in the #include<new> file. It is externally guarded with the #ifdef structure, and the include is through the source file for allocators. I'll try and pair down the context.cpp file by commenting out everything that is enough to get it reproduced--I'm hoping it is a silly config setting or something of that nature.

They (__stl_new and __stl_delete) are used in stl/_alloc.h lines 135 and 136 respectively. Still messing with context.h

Ok, I paired it down... As soon as I include <vector> or <memory> I run into the problem. I tried explicitly including <new> and it did not work.

Here is the problem: There is a file called <new> that is included in a few headers. According to the C++ language spec, "new" is a keyword and the DMC compiler is getting confused in the #include directive and not importing the file <new>--nor is it giving me an error warning either. I am using Digital Mars Compiler Version 8.42n (from the dmc command). I grepped the include files for all #include <new> calls and replaced them with #include <_new> and renamed the one file. My issues went away.

I was having this same problem, but I figured it out.  I was assuming that, like
other compilers I've used before, I could set the INCLUDE environment variable
to the right paths.  I then tried adding -Ii:\dm\stlport\stlport to my dm
command to explicitly set the include path.  Then it worked great.  I guess this
means tha dmc doesn't use the INCLUDE environment variable?

It does, but the INCLUDE setting in the \dm\bin\sc.ini file overrides it.

No, since there's another iostream in \dm\include which is there for legacy compatibility. To use the new iostream, have it search \dm\stlport\stlport first.
