Hi,
While building an existing code base on Mac OS using its native build setup I am getting some basic strange error while compilation phase.
Does any of you have any idea, as I have seen it's been discussed earlier as well in this forum without any good reason. I can not see any conflicting files being included. But still I am unable to compile the code because this error appears.
Source are like the code given below and compilation error appears
$ cat a.h
#include <string>
#include <sstream>
namespace brijesh
{
typedef std::string String;
template<class T>
String
toString(T value) {
std::ostringstream buffer;
buffer << value;
return buffer.str();
}
$ cat b.h
#include "a.h"
namespace brijesh
{
class Platform
{
public:
static String getName();
};
}
$ cat b.cpp
#include "b.h"
namespace brijesh {
String
Platform::getName()
{
String name = "UNKNOWN";
#ifdef LINUX
name = "linux";
#endif
#ifdef MACOSX
name = "Mac";
#endif
return name;
}
}
