 |
|
Hello mates, It's my first day on Gentoo. Switching from Arch. First time experience with compiling everything too. So I choose so that I can save patching time. But after enabling some patches when I'm running it's giving me the following error:
| Code: | | error: unknown type name ‘Cur’; did you mean ‘Clr’? |
I don't know C that much. Is there any package I need to install? Thanks in advance.

I would like to help you - but I don't understand what you did.
Do I understand correctly that you downloaded https://github.com/bakkeby/dwm-flexipatch?
If I unzip the source code and run 'make', I do NOT get an error message.
How can I reproduce the error? Please tell me exactly what I have to do to get the error message. |

Here's exactly what I did.
I clone the repo by running | Code: | | git clone https://github.com/bakkeby/dwm-flexipatch.git |
Then I enabled some of the patches that I use in the 'patches.h' file. and run 'make'. This gave me the error message. Here's what I found afterward. I can make dwm-flexipatch if I don't enable any patches. The error message only there when there's a patch is enabled. Even only the vanitygaps patch.

I'm sorry. I can't reproduce that error.
Please make friends with wgetpaste and post:
- The output of 'emerge --info'
- Your file 'patches.h'
- The full output of running 'make clean; make'
BTW:
| Code: | typedef struct {
Cursor cursor;
} Cur; |
is defined in drw.h. If the compiler claims that it doesn't know 'Cur', it means that this file wasn't included. I do not see how this can happen. |

Thank you for helping me out.
Here is the output you requested.
'emerge --info' - http://dpaste.com/DFAAKM59B
'patches.h' - http://dpaste.com/GGGF9J2XU
'make clean; make' - http://dpaste.com/GMQ25T4BT
I'm sorry for the bad writing skill.  [/list][/list]

You changed:
| Code: | | define VANITYGAPS_PATCH 0 |
when it should be (to enable it):
| Code: | | #define VANITYGAPS_PATCH 1 |
# is not a comment in C, it is actually important
Edit: add enable text

Thanks for the files.
This is the error:
| Code: | patches.h:1266:1: error: unknown type name ‘define’
1266 | define VANITYGAPS_PATCH 0
| ^~~~~~
|
Edit 'patches.h' and go to line 1266. Can you see it? A '#' is missing in the first column. It should be '#define', not 'define'. Look at the other #defines in the file.
After you have fixed the #define issue, the 'Cur' issue will also be fixed... |

It's solved the error. Thank you very much.  I thought it was a comment. I feel silly.

I see it now. To enable it I need to put 1, not remove the #. I thought it was commented. Thank you.
