I am trying to use Boost signals to set up events with VC6. I discovered
that build 1.34.1 is the last build to support VC++ 6.0, so that is the
version I need to compile with. I noticed from the Signals tutorial on
the Boost site that for VC++ 6.0, I have to use the portable syntax.
So I declared my signal:
#include
#include
#include <vector>
typedef boost::signal1 signal_t;
I am using a vector of unsigned chars as a parameter to the signal handler
(event handler), since I am essentially receiving data from an ethernet
connection, parsing it, and sending it through the event back to the
subscriber.
Now the error.
using the above code, I get the following error:
error C2146: syntax error: missing ',' before identifier 'signal_t'
I'm pretty sure I checked and double-checked the syntax several times,
comparing it to the example in the signals tutorial. All I can think of
is that a vector is not supported as a parameter, yet it was for version
1.46 that I tried earlier. Am I doing anything wrong?
Quick responses are much appreciated!
Thanks!
Chris
