[Uni-verse] RE: [Uni-verse]

[Marcus Hoffmann]

i noticed too that eskil does his implementations that way (using the hole
verse code) and i agree with you that the lib version would be the better
one, because it's more capsulated and the better way for object-orientated
programming and - simply said - in vc++ it's  necessary.
maybe every c-file should contain a include of the verse.h but i don't know
if this fixes the problem...or maybe a forward declaration in the verse.h is
necessary.
however if you find some solution of this let me know... ;)

Well... No, I think I don't. :) Anyone who is going to write code
using the Verse library should be subscribed to the verse-dev list,
and this that community is (hopefully) going to be larger than just
the developers within Uni-Verse, it makes sense to keep this kind of
technical discussion there. Now, if anyone outside of Uni-Verse runs
into this problem, they will have to solve it again since they can't
see the discussion we're having on this closed list. That is not an
optimal use of resources, in my opinon.

Hm, okay, that is of course bad news. I don't even have a VC++
installation on my work laptop, but clearly see the need to have one
so I can help out with problems like this one.

One related problem is that Eskil, for reasons of his own, seems to
prefer actually including the library code in whatever project he is
working on at the moment. I am quite opposed to that way of working,
and would like the library to be a well-behaved library like any
other.

I'm not sure if what you are seeing is a problem at the code level,
that there is something wrong in the Verse implementation, or if it's
more of an environment situation where some option in VC++ causes it
to maybe decorate the symbol names oddly or something. It's been a
few months since I worked in VC++, too.

More later, sorry for the inconvenience. Regards,

/Emil
