Vc6++ Error with v1_3_0 update: guiAviBitmapCtrl.cc

by Richard Bottoms · in Torque Game Engine · 09/23/2004 (3:20 pm) · 7 replies

I've updated to the 1_3_0 source and am getting the following errors:

guiAviBitmapCtrl.cc(326) : error C2001: newline in constant
guiAviBitmapCtrl.cc(328) : error C2143: syntax error : missing ')' before 'return'
guiAviBitmapCtrl.cc(526) : error C2001: newline in constant
guiAviBitmapCtrl.cc(528) : error C2143: syntax error : missing ')' before 'return'


I have been successfully compiling until this point.


Thanks,
r.b.

Hmm.. I'm pretty sure Ben tested with VC6, but let me check it again.

A quick fix is to just take it out of the project. It's not an actively used control. Meanwhile, I'll also take a look at it.

Hmm. I'm not seeing any obvious flaws. Maybe Josh can shed some light - CVS occasionally munges files, so a clean checkout might also fix the problem.

Also, I'm pretty sure we didn't touch that file for 1.3... so it's a bit odd it's broken.

Richard, I'm not seeing this problem here either. You might try doing a new / clean check out and / or cleaning your project in VC++6 and re-building.

As a sanity check I'll grab a clean copy of 1.3 this evening and give it a whirl, need to look at the changes anyways and see if I can get them into daProject I am working on before IGC

Thanks, I'll pull it.

But as an aside I was trying to use the control the other day to play an AVI as a cut scene in my project. If this control isn't used how do you guys play cut scenes?


Thx

Downloaded the latest code and it compiled no problem.
