You hit a word that's defined as a number in some system header file.

Seems like the offending line is
static PdfName *DOMAIN;
Yes, quite plausible. I think this one has come up before.
To work it around, add --reserved DOMAIN to the command line or add it
to the reserved word list in cpp.py.
Andi..
which comes from this in the Java source:
public class PdfName extends PdfObject implements
Comparable<PdfName> {
...
public static final PdfName DOMAIN = new PdfName("Domain");
}
Assuming DOMAIN is the problem, what's the right way to rename it
out of the way?
I tried adding "--rename
com.itextpdf.text.pdf.PdfName.DOMAIN=DOMAIN_",
with no change.
