Problems compiling under Linux

SDL Development
1

Hi all,

I?ve written a SDL program and tried to compile it under linux (Knoppix 3.1 installation).
The result was a bunch of syntax error messages in the SDL header files like
SDL_types.h, SDL_timer.h, SDL_video.h, SDL.h.

Compiling the same stuff under Windows was successful.

Does anyone know what the problem could be?
I’d appreciate any idea.

With best regards

What were the exact error messages?

“Compiling the same stuff” means that you’re using the same .h files, or the equivalent files from the linux packages?

Just for information I use for compiling the g++ compiler.
And one exact error message is:
In file included from /usr/include/sdl/SDL_mouse.h:34,
from /usr/include/sdl/SDL_events.h:36,
from /usr/include/sdl/SDL.h:42,
from /src/…/include/CSDLProgram.h:8,
from src/…/include/MySDLProgram.h:11,
from src/main.cpp:5 :
/usr/include/sdl/SDL_video.h:596 :
syntax error before ‘(’

Compiling the same stuff means that I compile my files with the windows package.
