Hi Everyone, We have a PR for "Use ::byte instead of byte", https://github.com/weidai11/cryptopp/pull/438/files.
The background is C++17 is adding std::byte, and its causing some compile issues for folks with GCC 7 and above. The issue is due to (https://github.com/weidai11/cryptopp/blob/master/config.h#L197): // put in global namespace to avoid ambiguity with other byte typedefs typedef unsigned char byte; I think we have a few options, but its not clear to me which is the best at the moment. One of them includes: #if CRYPTOPP_CXX17 typedef std::byte byte; #else // put in global namespace to avoid ambiguity with other byte typedefs typedef unsigned char byte; #endif Or maybe even: #if CRYPTOPP_CXX17 using byte = std::byte; #else ... If you have any comments, please add them to the PR. Jeff -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "Crypto++ Users" Google Group.
