Description (last modified by metux) (diff)
Hey,
There is already a definition of bool in C, which uses also false and true,
therefore mc fails to build with ncurses currently as ncurses include
stdbool.h> where these are defined:
#ifndef _STDBOOL_H
#define _STDBOOL_H
#ifndef cplusplus
#define bool _Bool
#define true 1
#define false 0
#else /* cplusplus */
.....
#endif
So we should remove this completly from mhl/* and use this instead.
branch:239_fix_bool

(this is for mc-4.6 branch, for master see #240)

Which package provides <stdbool.h>? For me
$ slocate stdbool.h | grep include /usr/lib/gcc/i586-alt-linux/4.1.1/include/stdbool.h $ rpm -qf /usr/lib/gcc/i586-alt-linux/4.1.1/include/stdbool.h gcc4.1-4.1.1-alt11
Semms <stdbool.h> is gcc-specific. It's OK if you don't care about other compilers.

Hey,

?compilers.
No.. stdbool.h is not gcc-specific, it's part of C99:

As winnie already said, stdbool.h is part of the C99 spec, so it part of the compiler (not libc, not kernel).
(note that GCC's language-spec specific header are sitting somewhere at /usr/lib/gcc-$ver/.../include, not /usr/include).
