I've checked out the correct branch this time.
Attached is a small patch allowing compilation of the dialogbase branch with
DEC compilers. The changes to the sourse are trivial:
* a tiny change to sigc++/object.cc. I point this out because of the
DO_NOT_MODIFY_THESE_FILES warning.
* string::erase() replaces string::clear()
* using std::getline;
* some changes to table.[Ch] and tabular.[Ch] to get around the non-standard
cell_info[i] = new cellstruct[columns](buffer);
This was debated at length some time ago and the change, though deprecated,
works. Juergen has since completely re-written this code to make use of STL
containers.
The code appears to work fine (ie it prints!) using auto_mem_buffer.
Congratulations, Allan.
Trust you're having fun lost in Europe.
