#215 closed defect (fixed)

windows.h should never be included by LEMON header files

Reported by: Alpar Juttner Owned by: Alpar Juttner
Priority: major Milestone: LEMON 1.1 release
Component: core Version: hg main
Keywords: Cc: Akos Ladanyi, Tapolcai János

Description

For instance, Arc is used in the global namespace by some versions of windows.h and it may cause problems in the user's code, even if they do not use windows.h directly.

I suggest putting all stuff using windows.c into a separate .cc file instead.

[f387d3227f87] is a preliminary implementation of this idea.

It should work using the CMAKE build env. I have no idea what to do with MinGW+autotools.

Status: newassigned

[df730c6c1298] is an improved version of the [f387d3227f87]. Now, lemon/bits/windows.cc is always compiled and put into the lib, both by autotools and by cmake. Moreover, the two functions there will do something meaningful both on unices and on win32. I hope it solves the MinGW+autotools issue, too.

Note that although the stuffs in windows.h would work also on UNIX, they are used by time_measure.h and by graph_to_eps.h only on WIN32. This leads to some code duplications, but it makes it possible to use these tools in a header-only fashion.

Can anyone test this patch with MinGW? It would be even greater if someone could try out whether the Linux->WIN32 cross compilation will work with MinGW.

Meantime, I noticed that random.h includes windows.h, too. The changeset [879c55700cd4] gets rid of this, as well. Now, there should not be more references to windows.h in the lib.

Good. So, I merge it both into the main and the 1.0 branches.

These are still some problems with VS2005 here

comment:11 Changed 15 years ago by Tapolcai János

I just added a new patch (28b3dec413f1_tj3.patch) upon the latest patch of alpar (879c55700cd4.patch). This version compiles under VS2005 and under MINGV. By the way I have tried generating an Eclipse CDT4 project file with CMAKE and it works fine, too.

This sounds good.

May I ask you all trying out this last path on as much platforms as possible to make sure that we can really close this annoying ticket forever. By "as much platforms as possible" I mean

  • Linux + autotools
  • Linux + cmake
  • Cygwin + autotools
  • Cygwin + cmake
  • MinGW on Windows + cmake
  • VS2005 + cmake
  • VS2008 + cmake

Could you please report here the successful builds. Thank you in advance.

Two comments.

  • the UNICODE and _T defines should be surrounded by #ifndef/#endif pairs
  • The _T should only be defined when WIN32 is defined, too.

Others, please suspend the tests until it is fixed.

Did you try Cygwin with CMAKE or with autotools?

comment:17 Changed 15 years ago by Akos Ladanyi

To extend and clarify my previous comment: 879c55700cd4.patch with 4b03fc4ad521_tj.patch compiles with:

  • MinGW + CMake,
  • Cygwin + autotools.

It does not compile with:

  • VS2008EE + CMake.

Replying to ladanyi:

  • VS2008EE + CMake.

Changeset [0316fe05c4ec] is another (hopefully the last) attempt to solve this annoying issue.

It compiles and runs correctly on:

  • Linux (cmake and autotools)
  • Cygwin (cmake and autotools)
  • MinGW (cmake)
  • Visual Studio 2008 Express Edition (cmake)

Could anyone check it with VS 2005? It would be nice to see it working on both the Express and the full editions.

If it compiles in order, please run the graph_to_eps_demo and check the %%CreationDate: field in the created files.

The changeset [3f0ddf255524] should put an end to this story.
