Dec 31st, 2008
hello again,
just tried to compile my project and i'm getting errors with a file cstdlib

Error 2 error C2039: 'abort' : is not a member of '`global namespace'' c:\program files\microsoft visual studio 9.0\vc\include\cstdlib 23
Error 3 error C2873: 'abort' : symbol cannot be used in a using-declaration c:\program files\microsoft visual studio 9.0\vc\include\cstdlib 23
Error 4 error C2039: 'exit' : is not a member of '`global namespace'' c:\program files\microsoft visual studio 9.0\vc\include\cstdlib 26
Error 5 error C2873: 'exit' : symbol cannot be used in a using-declaration c:\program files\microsoft visual studio 9.0\vc\include\cstdlib 26

i have no idea whats causing these errors so far as i'm aware i'm not even using cstdlib

-Midi

Of more relevance, try posting a small sample of your code that illustrates the problem. Also provide information about your compiler settings (eg any settings you've tweaked in the VC IDE to non-standard settings).

My guess is that you've been playing with some #define's somewhere (either before you've include'd some headers, or in the IDE settings) and they interact with the headers in strange ways.

the only thing i've done is add

GLUT_BUILDING_LIB to the preprocessors to stop a clash between glut and stdlib

i have no idea what code to post, my program consists of 30 files and the error says its in the file cstdlib the only thing i have to go on is the errors happen after these 3 files

i'm thinking it could be a corrupt header file but i cant seem to find stdlib anywhere atleast not one that looks anything like what i have at the moment

I'd look in the glut header files before looking in the cstdlib. The fact there is even a macro GLUT_BUILDING_LIB to define to "stop a clash between glut and stdlib" says that the incompatibility is the glut header file and library, rather than the standard library.

Generally, suppliers of third-party libraries (like glut) are responsible for ensuring compatibility with compilers and standard libraries. Presumably, in your case, the glut library people have not ensured compatibility with your version of Visual Studio.
