Problems with STLport 4.5.3

[summer_goth]

Hi all, havent posted in a while.
Ive been trying to install stlport but when I type 'nmake -f vc6.mak clean all' in the command prompt I get the following error:

..\\stlport\ctime<25> : fatal error c1083: Cannot open include file: '..include/ctime' : No such file or directory

What am I doing wrong? I set the path for stlport, must I set a path somewhere else as well?

Thanks all, keep up the good work.

Hi Summer_Goth,

If you read the "install" file located in the STLport dir, you will see the following:

____________

4-1) Using appropriate makefile, do "make -f <your compiler name>.mak prepare". Please do not skip this! On some platforms, it creates necessary symbolic links. If you do build STLport iostream, this step is performed automatically when you do "make all".

4-2) uncomment _STLP_NO_OWN_IOSTREAMS setting in "stlport/stl_user_config.h" to disable use of STLport iostreams and to use wrappers around your existing iostreams. After disabling STLport iostreams, you will use wrappers around your compiler's iostreams libabry, as in previous STLport releases. No binary library for STLport needs to be built in this case. Note though : - new-style ANSI iostreams may not be available on your system; - compiler's iostreams are most likely slower than STLport version.

____________

So instead of using "clean all" you need to do "prepare", and then uncomment the _STLP_NO_OWN_IOSTREAMS setting in "stlport/stl_user_config.h".

Let me know if you still have any problems.

Cheers,

Jape
