-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] I came across this about a year ago too. It was a pretty common problem - not sure why there isn't more info on it (there was back then).
>From what I remember it's something in stdstring.h. It includes some file that re-defines min and max in linux. The fix was to just #undef min and #undef max and then include another file (I think). Wish I could find where I found out how to fix it. garry On 12/23/06, Jed <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Well after solving all the other problems I've managed to get the > current HL2MP SDK to start compiling but I've hit an error regarding > min/max. > > I've searched the archives and found mention to it but no definate > answer on how to fix it.
