a few months ago I wrote a program that included something like this:

vector v;
...
v.vector();

where vector is a class with a constructor that sets the x,y coords to 0,
the program worked then, but now (possibly with a newer version of djgpp) it
gives me errors (wont compile). Is using a constructor function in this way
not legal? Is there any other way of using this function or should I just
make a copy of the function with another name (seems like a bit dodgy that
to me)?

Thanks in advance,
Dan
