Problem compiling on Windows 7

[ameasure]

I'm trying to compile on Windows 7 using g++ 4.7.2 and GNU Make 3.8.1. When I do I get the following errors:

C:\Users\ameasure\brown-cluster-master>make
g++ -Wall -g -o wcluster.o -c wcluster.cc
wcluster.cc: In function 'void repcheck()':
wcluster.cc:431:3: error: '__STRING' was not declared in this scope
wcluster.cc:432:3: error: '__STRING' was not declared in this scope
wcluster.cc: In function 'int main(int, char*)':
wcluster.cc:1072:3: error: '__STRING' was not declared in this scope
make: ** [wcluster.o] Error 1

Any idea what's going on?

I figured it out, it doesn't seem to work with newer versions of g++. It compiles fine with g++ 4.4.

I got the same problem. But when I installed MinGW with g++ 4.4.0, it can't compile and I get same errors:

C:\Users\luongtieumy2000\brown-cluster-master>make
g++ -Wall -g -o wcluster.o -c wcluster.cc
wcluster.cc: In function 'void repcheck()':
wcluster.cc:431: error: 'STRING' was not declared in this scope
wcluster.cc:432: error: 'STRING' was not declared in this scope
wcluster.cc: In function 'int main(int, char*)':
wcluster.cc:1072: error: '__STRING' was not declared in this scope
make: ** [wcluster.o] Error 1

Would you please show me how I can fix these error?

Did you change g++ 4.4.0 to be your default compiler? Type g++ --version on the command line, which version does it say it is?

Dear Alexander Measure,
I got this:
C:\Users\luongtieumy2000>g++ --version
g++ (GCC) 4.4.0

Please give me how to fix error.
Thank you very much!

I'm not sure why it isn't working for you. The only thing I can think of is that I might have done this in Ubuntu instead of on Windows.

Thanks. If you can think out about this problem, please tell me.

Best regards,

I am trying to compile this on Windows7 and getting the same errors
'__STRING' was not declared in this scope
[Note] in expansion of macro 'define_str '

Please help!

Maybe you can try to change '__STRING' to use '__STRINGIFY'
