Thread: Compile Errors Due to STL & Iterator

Hi.

I posted two threads earlier about STL and cin, cout, ifstream and ofstream. I implemented code based on inputs from other members.

Here is the code:


void ScanList::scanData(ifstream &source, ofstream &output)
{
string oneLine;
std::deque dataList;

while(veri)
{
std::getline(source, oneLine);

if (oneLine[0] == NULL || !isdigit(oneLine[0]))
{

if (source.eof())
{
veri = false;
continue;
}

else
continue;

}

else
dataList.push_back(oneLine);


if (source.eof())
veri = false;
}

std::unique(dataList.begin(), dataList.end());

/*
std::deque::iterator beginITER = dataList.begin();

while (beginITER != dataList.end())
{
output << *beginITER;
beginITER++;
}
*/

std:stream_iterator outFile(output, "\n");
std::copy(dataList.begin(), dataList.end(), outFile);
dataList.clear();
}


VC++ gave these four warnings:


Compiling...mScanList.cppD:\C++\mScanList.cpp(81) : warning C4786: 'std::reverse_iterator,std::allocator >,std::allocator,std::allocator > > >::const_iterator,std::basic_string,std::allocat or >,std::basic_string,std::allocator > const &,std::basic_string,std::allocator > const *,int>' : identifier was truncated to '255' characters in the debug informationD:\C++\mScanList.cpp(81) : warning C4786: 'std::reverse_iterator,std::allocator >,std::allocator,std::allocator > > >::iterator,std::basic_string,std::allocator >,std::basic_string,std::allocator > &,std::basic_string,std::allocator > *,int>' : identifier was truncated to '255' characters in the debug informationc:\program files\microsoft visual studio\vc98\include\deque(191) : warning C4786: 'std::deque,std::allocator >,std::allocator,std::allocator > > >::deque,std::allocator >,std::allocator,std::allocator > > >' : identifier was truncated to '255' characters in the debug informationc:\program files\microsoft visual studio\vc98\include\deque(208) : warning C4786: 'std::deque,std::allocator >,std::allocator,std::allocator > > >::~deque,std::allocator >,std::allocator,std::allocator > > >' : identifier was truncated to '255' characters in the debug informationmScanList.obj - 0 error(s), 4 warning(s)


VC++ outputs those warnings no even when I used the second technique which the compile ignored because of /* and */.

Does anyone know what it is talking about and how to elimate the warnings?

Thanks.

I saw a couple of responses at Gamedev that it is just a compile warning having to doing with 255 characters. The following code would turn it off:

#pragma warning( disable : 4786 )
