I'll have to modify the patch and the distro later after work. Right now I can't do anything about it. Edit: Ok, after taking a quicky look, the patch would have been too much of a pain to fix, so I only fixed this in the main distro package. It's a relatively minor thing that will only crop up if you aren't using gcc3, and most recent distros are doing that anyway. This will only affect patc https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/afkmud-154-released-180/&p=659#p659 Fri, 25 Jul 2003 20:48:41 CDT AFKMud Release Announcements nobody@example.com (Samson) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/afkmud-154-released-180/&p=662#p662 In C++ a variable need be declared merely before it is invoked. It doesn't matter where (not counting things like in the middle of a function, etc ;P) or how soon before. And I'm not even a coder! https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/afkmud-154-released-180/&p=662#p662 Fri, 25 Jul 2003 16:14:35 CDT AFKMud Release Announcements nobody@example.com (Cam) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/afkmud-154-released-180/&p=658#p658 Hmmm, poking around the memory that working in PERL hasn't corrupted yet.... In standard ANSI C, all variable declarations have to occur at the top of the block whose scope they belong to, in ancient K&R, they had to occur at the top of the function. I learned C before the ANSI C99 definition existed, so if they changed it there... YMMV. I think you can get away with declaring anywhere in C++, but I don't know C++ very well.
