From: papilla@cs.tamu.edu (Benoit Papillault) Subject: gcc does not handle macro properly 17 Jun 1998 06:20:20 -0700 Message-ID: References: <199806160527.WAA119358@axon.engr.sgi.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII To: gnu-win32@cygnus.com Hi, I am trying to compile some code with Winsock2. I am currently trying to modify the header files myself because I get many errors messages. I discover that gcc does not handle propertly the following macro: #define FD_CLR(fd,set) do { \ u_int __i; \ for (__i = 0; ... The compiler says: parse error before for... In fact, I edited the file with vi and remove all the ^M after the \ and it works. (Now I have different error messages) I am pretty sure that it comes from some silly TEXT and BINARY mode. And perhaps the solution would be to use the 'mount' programs....
