Hi,
thanks for the pointing it out.
now I called the method purple_account_set_enabled() from my main source
file of purple plugin protocol.
in order to call this method the header file of the method needed to
include.
So I included core.h to call purple_core_get_ui() in order to passe as a
method parameter to purple_account_set_enabled().
But when i compile the program i get the following error.
/usr/local/include/libpurple/core.h:62: error: expected
specifier-qualifier-list before ‘GHashTable’
/usr/local/include/libpurple/core.h:83: error: expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’, ‘asm’
or ‘__attribute__’ before ‘purple_core_init’
/usr/local/include/libpurple/core.h:110: error: expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’,
‘asm’ or ‘__attribute__’ before ‘purple_core_quit_cb’
/usr/local/include/libpurple/core.h:157: error: expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’,
‘asm’ or ‘__attribute__’ before ‘purple_core_migrate’
/usr/local/include/libpurple/core.h:170: error: expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’,
‘asm’ or ‘__attribute__’ before ‘purple_core_ensure_single_instance’
/usr/local/include/libpurple/core.h:197: error: expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’,
‘asm’ or ‘__attribute__’ before ‘*’ token
make: *** [libsallapa.dll] Error 1
what would be possible cause to this ?
thanks
