Summary: expat.h compile error: enum XML_Status
Initial Comment:
c++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../../autocfg -g -O2 -c
context.cpp -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/context.lo
In file included from parser.h:45,
from guard.h:143,
from context.cpp:45:
/usr/include/expat.h:657: use of enum `XML_Status'
without previous declaration
/usr/include/expat.h:736: multiple definition of `enum
XML_Status'
when building sablotron.
Hand editing the file to place the def of enum
XML_Status before any references to it fixes the problem.

Changed priority to highest to make it more visible,
so that double reporting incidents occur less frequently.

Same problem and the same fix under Linux and gcc 2.95.2.

same problem, same fix when building 1.95.6 on vms
(just downloaded .tar.gz & processed - got the rpm, but
don't know what to do with it - not an archive type I know
how to handle on vms, or windows either)

Strange - I had no problems with MS VC++ 6.0.
Which service pack level have you applied?

This makes Expat 1.95.6 unusable for people who create
libraries that depend on Expat but don't include their own
copy of Expat. Sure, I can edit expat.h and fix it, but my
users should not be expected to do that.
For that reason I'm staying with Expat 1.95.5 until this
problem is fixed. It'd be really nice if you could make
Expat 1.95.7 soon..
In my case GCC 2.95.2 and VC++ 6.0 are complaining.

But current CVS works for you, right?

It *is* fixed in CVS. Are you sure you checked out the
right version, which is expat.h 1.51?

I just got the same error, already fixed it. But don't
understand why it isn't fixed in CVS ?

I've not checked the C89 standard yet, but Expat 1.95.6 is
certainly dodgy in this case. ;-( The first draft of the C spec I
found online certainly seemed to imply that any use of an
incomplete enum is not allowed; I'm not likely to go out and
buy a copy of the final spec to check further. ;-)
As noted, this has been fixed in CVS. Fixed the summary to
better indicate what this report is about, and lowered the
priority to get it out of the way for maintainers.

So far only gcc3.2 has complained.
Not sure if this is a bug, since most compilers accept it,
but it has been fixed in CVS already anyway.
Set resolution status to fixed, but leave open.
There may be other users who would report this as a bug
and I want them to see the open report instead of
having duplicates created.
Assigned to Fred - since he may know more about
whether this truly is a bug.
