Linker problem

[AmeNeko]

I'm having a problem when my program is linking. It all compiles fine, just doesn't link. The error I'm getting is like this...

Code: Select all

main.cc: In function `int main(int, char**)':

main.cc:95: no matching function for call to `CSprite::spriteLoadTex(GLuint*, const char[14])'

tile_accelerator.h:58: candidates are: int CSprite::spriteLoadTex(long unsigned int, const char*)

the code definition reads as...

Code: Select all

int spriteLoadTex(GLuint tex, const char *fn);

and the call reads like this...

Code: Select all

spriteTest.spriteLoadTex(&texFrameIndex, "/rd/crate.pcx");

Now what really confuses me is that if I switch it to

Code: Select all

(const char *fn, GLuint tex)

it works just fine. I'm using Cygwin with kos 1.1.9, binutils 2.11.2, newlib 1.9.0 and gcc 3.0.3.

you are passing &tex... so the function definition should be GLuint* and not GLuint. (pointer vs int)

[Strapping Scherzo]

You're passing a pointer to a GLuint when you call it, but the function definition doesn't take a pointer, just a GLuint. I don't know if you intend on changing the value of the GLuint passed into the function. If you aren't, don't bother passing a pointer to it. Basically, the types don't match for the first parameter.

Yeah, I got it as soon as you posted :-D Thanks tho.... was gonna ask another question, but it was a stupid fix.
