Compile error on Ubuntu (SVN version)

[David Perfors]

After a long time I am on Linux again :lol: but when trying to compile C::B I get the following error:

Code Select Expand

./cbexception.h: In member function 'void cbException::ShowErrorMessage(bool)':
./cbexception.h:44: error: 'L__DATE__' was not declared in this scope
./cbexception.h:44: error: 'L__TIME__' was not declared in this scope

This is while compiling sdk.h.gch.
Is this a known issue?

[connyosis]

Yeah I get that too. I figure I'll wait a while and see if it gets fixed. It is svn after all...

[undofen]

Yeah but we linux-only users are a bit out of luck I think, I'm not sure if any of the dev's are using linux as their main os. Thats why everythings works on win first, maybe if were lucky will get a linux-only C::B dev for christmas ;-).

L__DATE__ ?

ROFL! That's because someone used _T() macro on another macro. They should use wxT() instead. Yes, Macros are Evil(TM) .

OK, fixed (rev 1540).

[David Perfors]

That did the trick

btw. on other places I get the same problems...

(for now startherepage.cpp:104) I will hunt these errors down and commit the changes..

I believe to remember that wx offers a macro __TDATE__ or something similar...

Yes: __TFILE__, __TDATE__ and __TTIME__

[David Perfors]

hmm. I got some other problems

Well, what there is is me.  I svn-compile C::B in Gentoo every day or so and yell at the devs when they break Unicode ( again :| ) and such =)

I also compile CB on getoo often, but I cant use it until it has a usable debugger - no actual line highlight or pointer, no debugging window for console app's :/. I can live without the latter, but reading which line I'm on from the debug output isn't to nice. This program is so much better then any linux alternatives I cant wait to be able to use it :-), good job dev's!.

[mandrav]

I switch back and forth to windows/linux. Mostly like one week with each. But I *have* to do it so both ports get the attention they deserve. I 'm sorry but I don't have a spare PC to setup so I can use both simultaneously...

[takeshimiya]

Should we put a "Donate a PC to Yiannis so he can test better linux" thing?

[undofen]

hehe I thought about the same ;-), but I'd opt for donating money or hardware ;-).

[takeshimiya]

Jocking aside, it's not a bad idea.

Look at http://www.poedit.org/
In the left of the page, Vaclav put an "Mac OS X port donations needed" and received cash so he could buy a mac to test the wx programs there.
