Problem with anonymous enum in WindowStyle (Ubuntu)
« on: June 20, 2010, 09:37:35 am »
hey all:

first sorry if this bug has been already reported.

while i was compiling one project with sfml 1.6, i get an error about some constant value in WindowStyle.hpp.

Searching the web, i have found this link that complains about the same situation: gamedev

Some quick fix to repair it?

The only quick fix that you can do is making sure that you never include XLib headers before SFML ones.

thx Laurent.

I only use sfml and Assimp, so perhaps some sfml files include Xlib headers?

EDIT: i have seen that cmake includes xlib before sfml. I have to find a way to change this.

Thanks

SFML include Xlib internally, it doesn't produce any conflict in user code.

What do you mean? What's the relation with CMake?

i'm using cmake to create my project makefile and it seems that the makefile created by cmake includes xlib before sfml

The makefile doesn't include anything, it's in your code that you have to find and swap the guilty #include statements.

cmake generates automatically makefiles for projects, and it seems to include xlib in linux. I don't include xlib in my code directly, causes i'm trying to programm cross-platform code.

I have the same code and the same cmakelists for windows and linux and i don't get any error in windows

But makefiles don't include headers ;)

If XLib.h gets included, it's because somehere in your headers (or most likely in one of the external headers that you include) there is a #include <XLib.h>.

Sometimes its burried deeply inside headers, so it may be hard to figure out which header leads to #include <XLib.h>. A simple solution is to always include SFML (and headers that include SFML) first.

You don't get any error on Windows because XLib is a Linux library.

thx Laurent

I have found where "I" include it. it seems GLee uses Xlib.
Now the problem is that i cant include it before SFML, but SFML includes Opengl, and GLee need to be included before OpenGL.

This is crazy, man

I agree. Defining None with a macro is definitely a disaster... Especially in such a common system header.

However I think there is another solution: #undef None after including Glee.h.
