I'm using a C++ compiler on a DSP that doesn't provide the
bitset
class. Can anyone suggest a replacement for it? I've written
a lot
of code that uses the bitset class (before I knew about the...
inadequacies of the compiler), so it needs to have
approximately the
same interface.
Uh... Get a free library implementation, like STLport or GNU,
and
"re-use" their bitset. AFAICT, most if not all of it is in the
header. If your compiler doesn't have it, maybe it still can
compile
the one others have implemented...
Yes, that would be an ideal solution. And I have tried that,
with the
bitset header from both Visual C++ and g++.
Uh... The suggestion was that you get a *free* library
implementation.
VC++ is a commercial product that you license. Even when you don't
pay
for a copy of it, it's still covered by that license. So you're not
free
to do as you please with it. (You might take a look at the
copyright
notice on the header files.)
The license grants you permission to use in and link with your
products. The compiler pulls out just what you use...I don't see
the
difference if you do that by hand to get a particular job done. It
is
a totally legitamate thing to do.
Obviously not, if you use it with a different C++ compiler. :-)
