I had a look for error messages on google but could not find anything that I could relate to,
With your advice I installed the CVS version and configured it and tried to compile but it produced the following errors I did have a look on google but I couldn't make any sense of it! here it is make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/user/flightgear/TerraGear/src/Lib/Output' Making all in Polygon make[3]: Entering directory `/home/user/flightgear/TerraGear/src/Lib/Polygon' g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../../../src/Include -I../../../src -I../../../src/Lib -g -O2 -MT chop-bin.o -MD -MP -MF .deps/chop-bin.Tpo -c -o chop-bin.o chop-bin.cxx chop-bin.cxx:43:21: error: names.hxx: No such file or directory chop.hxx:36: error: 'AreaType' has not been declared chop.hxx:44: error: 'AreaType' has not been declared chop-bin.cxx:48: error: 'AreaType' has not been declared chop-bin.cxx: In function 'void clip_and_write_poly(std::string, long int, int, SGBucket, const TGPolygon&, bool)': chop-bin.cxx:120: error: 'get_area_name' was not declared in this scope chop-bin.cxx: At global scope: chop-bin.cxx:152: error: 'AreaType' has not been declared chop-bin.cxx:304: error: 'AreaType' has not been declared make[3]: *** [chop-bin.o] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/user/flightgear/TerraGear/src/Lib/Polygon' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/user/flightgear/TerraGear/src/Lib' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/user/flightgear/TerraGear/src' make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 Thanks for the help im very new when it comes to this sort of thing, I don't usally have any problems compiling programs only configuring when it requires a dependencey! /w >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/31/07 01:27pm >>> * will Pink -- Wednesday 31 October 2007: > coverage.hxx:54: error: extra qualification 'VpfCoverage::' on \ > member 'VpfCoverage' > Im a bit stuck as im not sure what the error messages correspond > to in the code in coverage.hxx! coverage.hxx:54 in your version contains: VpfCoverage::VpfCoverage (const VpfCoverage &coverage); ... and gcc complains that there's a "VpfCoverage::" too much ("extra"). And the solution is: remove that! :-) The bug is fixed in CVS since a while. Using CVS versions of TerraGear, SimGear, and FlightGear is quite safe. They are almost always better than the respective last releases, both in features *and* stability. BTW: Google would have told you in the first few hits what that error message is about and how to fix it: http://www.google.com/search?q=%22error%3A+extra+qualification It's just that gcc has become more pedantic over its last releases. m. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
