#1 I would like to install on win 2000

[Ralph Gardner]

I would like to install QMcBeaver on Windows 2000 using
Microsoft Visual C++, I'm not a C++ programmer though
I've been programming for 30 years using mainly COBOL
with some FORTRAN and lately Java and a little C. I've
been able to recompile about half the source code file
so far, the only problem seems to be when an index is
declared in a for statement it seems to think it's a
invalid redefinition ex. "FOR(int i=0" is invalid. I
don't know what will happen when I try to build an
executable. If you have any ideas on how to do this I
would be very appeciative.
Thanks in advance,
Ralph Gardner

Sorry for the delayed response. I apparently didn't have
the trackers setup to email me. Are you still interested in
running QMcBeaver on Windows 2000?

(This is the first time I have accessed the bug tracker.) I
have seen something like this on a Cray machine. My problem
was the "C++" compiler was not actually a "C++" compiler.
It was messing up all the scoping for all for(int i=0; i<n;
i++) type loops (completely legal in C++). Have you checked
in the source files to see if this is really a C++ scoping
problem or if it is a compiler that is acting funny? I have
never really done any developing on MS products so can't
comment on how well they do their jobs. If they are built
as "solid" as other MS products you may have issues.

I think Amos may have solved this problem. I'll let him reply.

did you try the QMcBeaver.sln file I added to CVS? as best
as I can tell, that *should* have worked no problem. it
sounds like you have Visual Studio set up to report all
warnings as errors, which is a setting somewhere. is the
error on lines 466/467 of QMCDansWalkerInitialization.cpp?
there is a small redefinition problem that can be (safely)
ignored.

i would recommend going to the Project/QMcBeaver
Properties/CC++ section and do two things. lower the warning
level and turn off the "treat warnings as errors". if this
doesn't work, then please send me more information about the
error being generated.
