Apparently, the typeof() operator is not supported by your C compiler. Having relatively little experience with cross-platform programming, I did not notice that the typeof operator is not part of the main ANSI C standard. I've removed it from the sources entirely (making things somewhat more ugly), so your problem should be resolved with the following changes:


Ok. I added -qkeyword=typeof to my CFLAGS and the errors go away and no further issues on compilation.

I didn't have to update to this to make it compile. I don't know if you need to keep that patch set around.

Thanks!

I browsed the web a little and found that IBM C should at least support __typeof__(e), and, with the appropriate command line options, typeof as well. Timo, do you know how this works and other systems that may be affected? Or is it a better idea to avoid typeof() in general?

Regards,

Stephan.
