On approximately line 600 of abi/src/wv/text.c is the following chunk of
code:
case 0x9f ... 0xff:
printf("%c", char16);
return(1);
First of all, I will openly admit that I'm not a C++ guy. I like
classes. That's about as far as I go into the deep dark world of C++. And
I have to imagine that this is valid C++, or AbiWord wouldn't build on other
platforms.
However, I'm as certain as I am that I'm breathing that this is invalid
C, and that that's why it won't compile on Win32 (the VC++ compiler gets
picky due to the file extension). So my question is, what's the best fix
for this? Thus far all I've come up with is putting
if( (char16 >= 0x9f) && (char16 <= 0xff) )
{
printf("%c", char16);
return(1);
}
at the top of the function and commenting out the offending block. Is there
a more elegant solution that I'm missing? Is this in some strange world
valid C? Am I missing something really obvious?
