[Dev-C++] Neoengine devpak and tutorials

[Alessandro B. <al...@vi...>]

I downloaded the neoengine.devpak from devpaks.org and I installed it. I =
use DevC++ 4.9.8.5 and Mingw compiler
I tried to compile some tutorial but the compiler say
=20
ISO C++ forbids declaration of `UDTVectorEXPIMP' with no type

Some suggestions?

Thanks
Alex

Actually, I created that devpak.

Which version did you download?
What version of GCC are you using? (gcc -v)
What C/C++ flags did you specify?
If you used defaults, could you also post the build log? That would help=20
a lot.

Well that's strange. Could you post <Dev-C++>/include/neoengine/base.h=20
so I can take a look at it. That can be the only source of the problem,=20
but with the 0.7.0 devpak it shouldn't be.

Well, I haven't read any myself, so I don't really know which one is=20
good and which one isn't. You might visit http://www.fly3d.com.br as=20
they have a book (3D games) which also includes their 3D engine. It is=20
commercial though, and I'm also sure it won't build with Dev-C++, just MS=
VC.

You might want to join the forums on http://neoengine.sf.net and post a=20
topic to the "Lounge" forum asking for a good book. I'm sure the people=20
there know some good ones.

According to the date of your mail, you possibly downloaded 0.6.3.
I added the new version (0.7.0) yesterday, so you might try that instead.
Also, don't forget to UNINSTALL the previous devpak before installing=20
the new one!

UDTVectorEXPIMP looks like it is probably a template  definition.

So somewhere in the code someone is saying something like:

UDTVectorEXPIMP fred;

where it may be that it should be

UDTVectorEXPIMP<int> fred;

The exact details of what's needed can only be known from finding the 
definition of UDTVectorEXPIMP to know how many parameters it expects.
