Hello List!,
<P>I'm not sure if this is a problem specific to djgpp or whether this
applies to all versions of gcc2.8.1.
<P>I built something like this:<TT></TT>
<P><TT>#include <stdlib> // workaround for the c++ headers</TT>
<BR><TT>#include <string> // std string classes</TT>
<BR><TT>#include <iostream></TT><TT></TT>
<P><TT>int main()</TT>
<BR><TT>{</TT>
<BR><TT> string hexes = "0123456789abcdef";</TT>
<BR><TT> string fred "12345";</TT>
<BR><BR>
<TT> if (hexes.find(fred) == npos) // complains here
that npos is undefined</TT>
<BR><TT> cout << "I can't
find it\n";</TT><TT></TT>
<P><TT> return 0;</TT>
<BR><TT>}</TT><TT></TT>
<P>I'm not sure if I'm missing some kind of scope resolution or what.
npos is defined, either in string or in bastring, I forget which, but it
IS defined as part of string, in a file that I've included. It's
easy enough to use "< 0" instead of npos, but I'd rather do almost anything
than try to feed the compiler magic numbers just to make it happy
<P>Suggestions are welcome
<BR>
<P>Charles</HTML>
