Redhat has this problem I have encountered this for several programs.

You have to add #include <string.h>

to the top of any file that gives you the error, in this case Base/GemBase.h. There is surely a better way of doing this but at least the extra includes ( 5-10 if I recall for GEM) will allow you to compile.

Hello,

I'm happily running Gem on my Debian machine but Can't get it to compile on redhat. v 4.2 with X 4.1 with Nvidia drivers. Kernel 2.4.7

I've installed all the required dependancies that are not automatically included (libjpeg, libitff and freetype, OpenGL are included)

here is my output:

In file included from ../Base/GemShape.h:16, from GemGluObj.h:16, from GemGluObj.cpp:15: ../Base/GemBase.h:25:8: warning: extra tokens at end of #endif directive GemGluObj.cpp: In method void GemGluObj::typeMess (t_symbol *)': GemGluObj.cpp:83:strcmp' undeclared (first use this function) GemGluObj.cpp:83: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in.) make[1]: *** [GemGluObj.o] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/gem-0.86/src/Base' make: *** [subdirs] Error 255

also th message

../Base/GemBase.h:25:8: warning: extra tokens at end of #endif directive

comes up after just about every cpp file (this did not happen in debian.)

Is it because the included applications (freetype, libtiff and libjpeg) are not compatible versions?

Thanks!
