pnglibNamespace[fixed]

General JUCE discussion

I decided to upgrade my projects to 1.46 today (SVN). Building the libs fails like so:

Compiling...
juce_PNGLoader.cpp
c:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK\Include\crt\malloc.h(146) : error C2883: 'pnglibNamespace::free' : function declaration conflicts with 'free' introduced by using-declaration
        c:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK\Include\crt\stdlib.h(270) : see declaration of 'free'
c:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK\Include\crt\malloc.h(147) : error C2883: 'pnglibNamespace::malloc' : function declaration conflicts with 'malloc' introduced by using-declaration
        c:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK\Include\crt\stdlib.h(283) : see declaration of 'malloc'
juce_JPEGLoader.cpp
juce_GIFLoader.cpp
Generating Code...

edit: I have tried moving the crt include up and down the list…

Well, commenting out line 50 and 51 in the PNGLoader file seems to fix it. One of my apps loads PNGs successfully, so I guess that’s all there was to it.

Doing that might break other builds though - what platform are you building on?

VC 2003.

Ok, well I’ll have to try all the different builds to find out which one these lines were required for. It could be that they’re not actually needed.
