Build Error in midifactory.cc

Post by sremington »

I was building CVS HEAD on an Ubuntu Jaunty box and was getting the following error:

midifactory.cc:91: error: ‘strdup’ was not declared in this scope

The following diff fixed it:

Code: Select all

Thanks for the heads up, new compiler versions always turn up things like this.

This seems to be the same issue that I am having.

What do I do with this to make my error go away?

Thanks,

In the source tree open up the libs/midi++/midifactory.cc file and add the line:

Code: Select all

#include <cstring>
up at the very top. Take a look at the diff at the top of the thread to get the idea. After that try compiling again.
