Description Ian S. 2006-09-17 14:12:10 UTC

I tried to emerge 3dfb today,but it failed with this compilation error:

gui.cpp:73: error: array bound is not an integer constant

The line in question:
------
    static levelLocation levels[fileMap.maxLevels];
------
maxLevels appears to be a static const uint which is set to 1024
when i ctrl-z'ed the ebuild after unpacking, and replaced the line with

------
    static levelLocation levels[1024];
------

Everything seems to work perfectly.

I went back and checked if it worked with gcc 3.4.6, which it does


ps: this is my first bug report, so feel free to tell me what I am doing wrong/should read first.

Thanks! I just fixed this in CVS. A bug is good, if it contains all relevant information for us to solve the issue without asking questions. ;) For real bugs it might be valueable to include the output of emerge --info, so that we know how your system configured.
