GP2X Classes

[gavinb2k]

Hi all,

I'm using Open2X and SDL to just play around at the moment, i have a simple file that has an entry point, sets up SDL and then quits. works fine.

However if i add a basic class to the file just above main entry point, such as:

class testClass{
int a;
int b;
};

i get 3 errors:

Syntax error before testClass
Error before '{' token
Error before '}' token

do i need to change something with the make file, i.e to use g++ instead of gcc, or change a gcc switch, or am i missing something else?

many thanks

Use g++ or gcc -x c++ for c++

but gcc on its own should compile it.

Youll probably need to use g++

I tried it with open2x and it compiles for me. Maybe there's a problem with the declaration before that class.

I'll try g++ when i get home, all that is before the class declaration is #include "sdl.h" and #include "stdio.h"

It should be:
CODE
#include <sdl.h>
#include <cstdio>

It should be:
CODE
#include <sdl.h>
#include <cstdio>

Ah...kk i shall try that, it just seemed strange it compiles with no issue if i remove the class declaration?

Are you saying:
CODE
testClass{
int a;
int b;
};

compiles fine?

No, sorry the main.cpp compiles with no worries if i remove the class declaration, its only when i add that short class it gives those 3 errors

Are you using "main.c" or "main.cpp", the gcc will try to auto-detect the language based on the extension ...

hmm...will double check, pretty sure its .cpp but was early in the morning and eyes were possibly closed lol

Compiles fine for me too
Maybe you are indeed trying to compile it as C and not C++?
