Yes - but abs() and llabs() is also included into std namespace a few lines later. The problem is that ::strtold() is also included, but does not exist in Cygwin's stdlib.h: cstdlib: ... #include "stdlib.h" ... #if _GLIBCXX_USE_C99 namespace __gnu_cxx { ... inline long long llabs(long long __x) { return __x >= 0 ? __x : -__x; } ... using ::strtold; } namespace std { ... using __gnu_cxx::llabs; ... using __gnu_cxx::strtold; } #endif The llabs() in my testcase was only intended as a real-world (found in ddrescue) usage example. The problem occurs also if cstdlib is simply included, but not used: #define _GLIBCXX_USE_C99 1 #include <cstdlib> /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.4/include/c++/cstdlib:181: error: `::strtold' has not been declared /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.4/include/c++/cstdlib:200: error: `__gnu_cxx::strtold' has not been declared This can be fixed by adding some dummy declaration of strtold: #define _GLIBCXX_USE_C99 1 void strtold(); #include <cstdlib> Christian -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
