Why syntax error?

[Taavi Remmelg]

Hello,
how to fix this error? Syntax seems correct, code compiles ok with Borland compiler.

cpptest/ALLIKAS.c:33:1: error: Unmatched '{'. Configuration: 'HARBOUR_STRICT_ANSI_C;HB_MSC_STARTUP;HB_OS_WIN_64;HB_PRAGMA_STARTUP;HB_STATIC_STARTUP;_MSC_VER;LCC;POCC;XCC;RPCNDR_H_VERSION'. [syntaxError]

Taavi

[CHR]

I get this instead:

ALLIKAS.c:54:1: error: There is an unknown macro here somewhere. Configuration is required. If HB_INIT_SYMBOLS_EX_END is a macro then please configure it. [unknownMacro]
HB_INIT_SYMBOLS_EX_END( hb_vm_SymbolInit_ALLIKAS, __PRG_SOURCE__,  0x000a )
^

Maybe looking at the preprocessed output (-E) can help with identifying the issue.

Did You test with GUI or command line?

[Taavi Remmelg]

I get the same error with command line without any switch.

GUI project setup file content below. Anything what can cause syntax error here?

Ok, seems there is a problem with compiling switches when processing header files for xharbour preprocessor environment. Will investigate further.

your project file is messed up, this is wrong:

<paths>
<check-level-normal>
<project-name>Taavitestfail</project-name>
<options>
<option>--std=c89</option>
<option>--suppress=missingIncludeSystem</option>
<option>-DHB_OS_WIN_64</option>
<option>-DHARBOUR_STRICT_ANSI_C</option>
<option>-DFIVEWIN</option>
</options>
</check-level-normal>
</paths>

paths is supposed to contain the paths only, no options.

and run command

"c:\Program files\cppcheck\cppcheck.exe" --project=Taavitestfail.cppcheck --std=c89

chatgpt suggests that something is wrong with HB_INIT_SYMBOLS_BEGIN expansion but have'nt figured out what is missing.

Something is wrong with pasting code. I will attach my project file as attachment
