[Dev-C++] VC project and Dev-cpp: friend declaration requires class-key

[Bo F. <bo...@ma...>]

Hi all.

I getting involved in a project and the other members uses Visual C++ or 
Borland. I'm the first on the project to use Dev-cpp.

When I compile, I get alot of errors, I've included those at the end of 
the mail. Many of them look like this:
../spacesim/workroot/source/Client/processing/p_processor.h:76: error: 
friend

   declaration requires class-key, i.e. `friend class 
PROCESSING::cProcessor'

Does that really mean that I have to add a class-key (which appears to 
be the same as namespace) to all my friend declarations to make it compile?
...that would suck....

I tried making the modification in one declaration, and the error did go 
away. But I do hope there is an easier way.

Thx.
