[solved]Using C++STL / C newlib

[remy_david]

Has anyone already tried to work with these libraries ?
Here is what the documentation says:

You can use these methods by including the relevant header file in the standard manner, for example:
"#include <vector>".

The current release provides an early version of STL and standard C functions, including the newlib subset.

However when I try to add any include from these libs the compilation fails because it cannot found the headers. That is because the include folder of the SDK does not include them. Does it mean this is not yet supported ? or did I miss something ?

Thanks for your help!

Hi

You need to add the libraries similar to this solution presented by wit

viewtopic.php?f=4&t=13

However, I read that STL is not recommended for mobile devices because it is memory-expensive

You need to check that, my info could be outdated.

you may need to read this topic [for custom new/delete operators]

Actually I only want to use the math.h standard C library but I don't know how to do that.

1. Include this in your header file:

Code: Select all

#include <math.h>

2. Go to Linker settings in your project properties (As Nour said, look at this thread by wit http://forums.badadev.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=13 if you don't know where they are) and add the location of the std libraries to the Library Search Path (-L). For example:

Code: Select all

"c:/bada/SDK/1.0.0b1/Tools/Toolchains/Win32/include/c++/4.4.1"

That's it. It should compile fine (didn't test it in action though ).

yes, it should be enough as sparky wrote.

Thanks for your responses, I was missing the "c:/bada/SDK/1.0.0b1/Tools/Toolchains/Win32/include/c++/4.4.1" part However it was not as you said

To get it to work you have to add "C:\bada\SDK\Tools\Toolchains\Win32\include\c++\4.4.1" to the Include path. The library search path is left untouched since stl & clib are part of the FBase library (which should already be in the path). This step is in fact not mandatory, as compilation will not fail, but the IDE will complain not finding the includes.

My problem was more C stdlib related. For the C standard library, the normal way of including the headers doesn't work. They are renamed as follow : normal name = "lib_name.h" -> bada name = "clib_name"

Exemple for "math.h" put "cmath" instead, which means:

Code: Select all

#include <cmath>

And not :

Code: Select all

#include <math.h>

Good to know, remy_david! I am pretty sure I will need the math thingy very soon! ... Thanks!
