Summary0001027: CVS aMule won't compile with newer gcc
DescriptionHi,

I'm using gcc 4.1.x and wxWindows 2.6.3 on the latest Mandriva distribution trying to compile the CVS aMule, but I'm getting this failure message.
Hope you guys could find a fix for this.

Weird, I use gcc (GCC) 4.1.2 20061115 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.1-21) and it works.

I use Gentoo and amule compiles ok with gcc-4.1.1 (gcc-4.1.1-r1 ebuild)

It does not look like an aMule bug "as such". I think it is GCC 4.1.xs pedantic behaviour which is "disabled" in distributions where it doesn't complain.

It seems like your compiler is in doubt whether to use wxString or std::string for the string literal passed on to the constructor. In my world the natural behaviour for the compiler would be to use the "built-in" STL type std::string.

Try to compile with -fpermissive flag.

It's just a hunch. Try asking on the GCC mailing list.
