Bug 671

Summary: C++ style comment causing spurious warnings

Description Forrest Stonedahl 2009-01-06 18:26:11 UTC 
In Ubuntu, I installed the package libsdl1.2-dev.
When compiling something that uses SDL using GCC, I'm getting hundreds of errors like this:

In file included from /usr/include/SDL/SDL_rwops.h:33,
                 from /usr/include/SDL/SDL_audio.h:33,
                 from /usr/include/SDL/SDL.h:30,
                 from share/image.h:4,
                 from ball/level.c:21:
/usr/include/SDL/begin_code.h:94:8: warning: extra tokens at end of #endif directive

They're all caused by one little mistake on line 94 of begin_code.h,

>> #endif //__SYMBIAN32__

where someone accidentally used a C++ // comment, rather than a C-style /* */ comment.  So it'd be fine for C++, but gives warnings for C.

I'd guess you've probably already fixed this.  But if not, I just thought I'd let you know.  Thanks for all the good work you do!

This is already fixed in revision control, thanks!
