Registerring Strings

lxnyce · 2005-07-28T20:48:50

I am trying to test out the new release, but run into trouble registerring variables. It appears to be the following lines. When I run the included projects using msvc 7.1 (2003) it compiles cleanly. When I compile from my project, I get the following error for the lines stated below : error C2440: 'type cast' : cannot convert from 'overloaded-function' to 'bool (__cdecl *)(const std::string &,const std::string &)' None of the functions with this name in scope match the target type This happens if I use the AC string or the std string (since they both use the same piece of code here). Anybody have a clue whats going on? r = engine->RegisterGlobalBehaviour(asBEHAVE_EQUAL, "bool f(const string &in, const string &in)", asFUNCTIONPR(operator==, (const string &, const string &), bool), asCALL_CDECL); assert( r >= 0 ); r = engine->RegisterGlobalBehaviour(asBEHAVE_NOTEQUAL, "bool f(const string &in, const string &in)", asFUNCTIONPR(operator!=, (const string &, const string &), bool), asCALL_CDECL); assert( r >= 0 ); r = engine->RegisterGlobalBehaviour(asBEHAVE_LEQUAL, "bool f(const string &in, const string &in)", asFUNCTIONPR(operator<=, (const string &, const string &), bool), asCALL_CDECL); assert( r >= 0 ); r = engine->RegisterGlobalBehaviour(asBEHAVE_GEQUAL, "bool f(const string &in, const string &in)", asFUNCTIONPR(operator>=, (const string &, const string &), bool), asCALL_CDECL); assert( r >= 0 ); r = engine->RegisterGlobalBehaviour(asBEHAVE_LESSTHAN, "bool f(const string &in, const string &in)", asFUNCTIONPR(operator <, (const string &, const string &), bool), asCALL_CDECL); assert( r >= 0 ); r = engine->RegisterGlobalBehaviour(asBEHAVE_GREATERTHAN, "bool f(const string &in, const string &in)", asFUNCTIONPR(operator >, (const string &, const string &), bool), asCALL_CDECL); assert( r >= 0 );

IIRC, the MSVC compiler has only ever been known to die with internal errors on partially specialized templates. It's very nearly standard compliant now, but 7.1 could still fark on partially specialized member templates if conditions were just right. You probably ran into such a case. Sticking it in the static function gave the compiler just enough more information to figure it out.

Rain Dog may have found the real cause of this problem. In his post he mentioned that by turning off precompiled headers for the file that registers the operators he was able to avoid the problem.

Just thought I'd let you guys know, just in case you don't read the other posts.
