Yes, the API is still under development, and mainly documentation, I suggest waiting one or two months again for next release. But, you can already use it, dar already does, it should not change much now. For the API library a few things remain : - finishing documentation, - testing that all the necessary is provided for external programs in the installed header files, - maybe add a set of macro or a new set of function to have all thrown exception tranformed in error code (mainly for pure C users). I'm interested in your feedback about the API, by the way. :-) what you have found that is missing, improved etc. (over what is planed to be done but not yet done). > > Running gcc-3.2.2 I get compile errors in libdar. > The problem seems to be with the answer_callback code: > cannot pass objects of non-POD type `struct > shows up on lines with "user_interaction_warning". I actually do testing and development with gcc-2.95.3, which is two-three years old now. In the things to do before releasing, there is also to make the whole thing compiling with more recent gcc, like 3.3.1. > > I don't understand the parse errors before '&' token either. I've installed gcc-3.3.1 yesterday as second C++ compiler and also got this message as well as some other error still concerning string class, as if the compiler saw that string "a non-POD type" was passed to "...", but no "..." was in the argument or the faulty function (???). I don't understand neither, and I must dig for this.
