2.1.4.18393 fails to compile with MSVC 9
----------------------------------------
Key: CORE-3851
URL: http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/browse/CORE-3851
Project: Firebird Core
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Build Issues / Porting
Affects Versions: 2.1.4
Environment: Windows 7, 32 bit build using VC9 (a.k.a. MSVS 2008).
Reporter: Vadim Zeitlin
Executing builds\win32\make_boot.bat results in the following error after a lot
of other, normal, output (paths slightly edited for readability):
...msvc\9\VC\include\new(58) : error C2084: function 'void *operator
new(size_t,void *) throw()' already has a body
...firebird-2.1.4.18393-0\src\jrd\../common/classes/alloc.h(451) : see
previous definition of 'new'
...msvc\9\VC\include\new(70) : error C2084: function 'void *operator
new[](size_t,void *) throw()' already has a body
...firebird-2.1.4.18393-0\src\jrd\../common/classes/alloc.h(455) : see
previous definition of 'new[]'
...msvc\9\VC\include\new(82) : warning C4985: 'operator new[]': attributes not
present on previous declaration.
...firebird-2.1.4.18393-0\src\jrd\../common/classes/alloc.h(442) : see
declaration of 'operator new[]'
Adding the lines
#define __PLACEMENT_NEW_INLINE
#define __PLACEMENT_VEC_NEW_INLINE
at line 450 in alloc.h allows the compilation to proceed (the warning about
missing "throws(bad::alloc)" still remains though) but looks more like a hack
than a proper fix.
The code seems to have changed a lot since 2.1.4 in the current svn trunk so
this issue is probably fixed there but it could be nice to fix it in 2.1 as
well if it can be done easily.
