[Mingw-users] gcc parse error (using libjpeg.dll)

[Soren A. <so...@wo...>]

Hello again,

Danny from this list was kind enough to let me know that the wheel I was 
re-inventing had been accomplished extensively by Paul Sokolovsky and the 
jpeglib was on the mingw.org site. However, even with Paul's patch, I 
cannot get the applications to compile!

Here is what that code is:

   ---- code -----

GLOBAL(cjpeg_source_ptr)
jinit_read_ppm (j_compress_ptr cinfo)
{
  ppm_source_ptr source;

  /* Create module interface object */
  source = (ppm_source_ptr)
      (*cinfo->mem->alloc_small) ((j_common_ptr) cinfo, JPOOL_IMAGE,
				  SIZEOF(ppm_source_struct));

  /* Fill in method ptrs, except get_pixel_rows which start_input sets */

  source->pub.start_input   = start_input_ppm;
  source->pub.finish_input = finish_input_ppm;

  return (cjpeg_source_ptr) source;

} /* LINE 459 */

   ----- end code ----

   ----- code from `jmorecfg.h -----

#if defined(_WIN32) || defined(__declspec) || !defined(STATIC)
#ifdef BUILD
#define GLOBAL(type)		__declspec(dllexport) type
#define EXTERN(type)		extern __declspec(dllexport) type

#endif
#else

#define EXTERN(type)		extern type
#endif

   ----- end code ------

 -- Is it that cpp macro instruction generates a parse error on my setup? 
The first file compiles fine.

IS this actually a bug in gcc cpp?
