Try taking a look at existing code, but I'm pretty confident that those defines are also documented somewhere. About _DEBUG, I can tell you that you have to define that manually. > Second, I am having a problem compiling some code.

Right, and that is because the C++ standard wants it so, and recent versions of GCC started enforcing it. You must explicitly qualify the member you want with either 'baseclass::member' or 'this->member'. > I have even made this member public in the base class, to no avail. private/protected/public doesn't matter for that, the first thing is finding a symbol (and in the case of template classes the base is not searched) and only then the compiler determines if the symbol is accessible. That's a topic for comp.lang.c++.moderated though.
