[STR New] In my project I add C++ source files into one of few large translation unit (many *.cpp files het included into one .cpp file and this gets compiled). This trick helps me to reduce compilation time (one or two orders of magnitude for a large, Boost heavy application) and I try to use it for every library. I tried the same with FLTK2.0 and found several things that would need a change. I'll mention few of them here and can publish all those found if there's interest in such feature. Otherwise compiling the FLTK files separately works OK for me (GCC 3.4.2 on Windows) Things that prevent compileing FLTK as single TU: 1. the symbol 'Rectangle' is used by windows Headers. I needed to prepend fltk:: to every 'Rectangle' used as parameter or local variable, e.g. void _draw(const fltk::Rectangle& r) const; 2. Several functions are implemented in more than one file: nogroup() or min(). 3. Several symbols are used in different contexts: e.g. NOTHING. 4. Macro REPEAT is defined in several files. 5. Symbols as 'small' and 'horizontal' are defined, somewhere, as macros and this clashes with their use elsewhere. When FLTK 2.0 will be released I'll patch it locally to compile as single TU. If there's interest by developers I may provide details, patches, tests, whatever is needed. It is quite a lot of boring work, however.
