wine users - Dec 2010 - Why msvcrt generates errors ?

Hello winers

I'm doing a little excersice.
A minimal source

  #include <string>
  int main(void)
  {
    return 0;
  }

So, if i compile that with:

  g++ -I/usr/include/wine/msvcrt -c myfile.cpp

I get errors like:

  In file included from /usr/include/c++/4.4/bits/postypes.h:42,
                 from /usr/include/c++/4.4/bits/char_traits.h:42,
                 from /usr/include/c++/4.4/string:42,
                 from myfile.cpp:1:
  /usr/include/c++/4.4/cwchar:148: error: ?::fwide? has not been declared

The question is:
If i pass the -I option to the compiler intructing it to search <string>
in wine FIRST (the c++ headers are searched in last instance, right ?), why the
compiler shows that is using string.h from c++ ?
If string.h is found in the wine includes, string.h from c++ is also used then ?
I don't expect this behavior. I expected a correct compilation (just
compilation, i'm not linking here).

**************string.h

The file you want is /usr/include/string.h not /usr/include/string
With this correction your source compiles OK with both gcc and g++

As this on c++ development forum. This has nothing to do with Wine.

Maybe we need a forum for developing/building applications on Wine vice Windows?
This is not normally a User type question and not a Wine Development type
question.

Also note that in case you want to use winelib, you must use winegcc / wineg++
instead of plain gcc / g++. Wine requires a lot of voodoo behind the back.
