[Gwc-general] gwc 0.19-3 make problem

[John C. <ci...@pu...>]

Hi Jeff,

I decided to try gwc 0.19-3 and see how the new mp3 filesave 
works.  Everything configured perfectly but shortly into the make, 
I got a fatal error caused by what gcc claims is a parsing error 
in audio_util.c.
I compared the file to that from 0.19-2 and did find a difference, 
at line 432 there used to be an opening brace {
and the corresponding closing brace } after the return, thus:

     432		need { here
     433         char buf[1000] ;
     434         sprintf(buf, "Save %ld bytes to %s", total_bytes, 
filename_new) ;
     435         if(yesno(buf))  {
     436             return ;
     437         }
     438 	need } here

If I add those braces back, the rest of the files build and the 
make completes. Here's my diff:

diff audio_util.c audio_util.c.orig
432,433c432
<
<     {
---
 >
439c438
<     }
---

I don't know why this fails, it seems there are the right number 
of braces... This is gcc 2.96 from Red Hat 7.3, maybe that makes a 
difference.

I tried the new gwc briefly to make sure it ran, then sent this 
note in case anyone else has this problem.
