Linux code in VC++

[abhipro]

Hi everyone,

I have a library in C++ ( All source and header files) which was targeted for Linux. Although, the authors say that with some minor changes, it can be compiled on Windows too.

Also, when I checked the .CPP files, some do the following code

#ifdef WIN32
#include <windows.h>
#include <wincrypt.h>
#endif

which means.. tht they hav considered windows as an option..

But, when I compile it on VC++, it throws me plenty of error..

what can possibly be the problem.. Any idea?

Regards,

Abhijit

What are the errors?

Hi William,

the following error is repeated for many functions..
error C2660: 'function name' : function does not take 2 arguments

some examples are:

error C2660: 'nres_modadd' : function does not take 2 arguments
error C2660: 'nres_modsub' : function does not take 2 arguments
error C2660: 'nres_modmult' : function does not take 2 arguments
error C2660: 'nres_premult' : function does not take 2 arguments

All errors are from the file, monty.h, which is part of the miracl library used for mathematical calculations.. miracl library provides full support for windows.. so this might not be a syntax error..

I am pasting the header code here..
