[ntl] Greetings - NTL users

[sergf]

I am a first time poster re: NTL.

 

I have downloaded the latest NTL and, after much trouble, finally got it
running with Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 using 

only a console-based Win32 bare-bones application.  I still get numerous
Warnings.  It appears that the problems come from 

C++ compatibility issues.

 

However, I am now trying to develop an MFC (Microsoft Foundation Classes)
application which will use the NTL library.

I tried to use the same of similar project settings as the Win32 app, but
nothing worked.

 

The problem seems to be in:  tools.h

The compile errors indicate an undefined type in tools.h

The errors are listed below:

 

1>Compiling...

This points to the following NTL_NO_MIN_MAX section in tools.h:

 

#ifndef NTL_NO_MIN_MAX

 

inline int min(int a, int b) { return (a < b) ?  a : b; } 

inline int max(int a, int b) { return (a < b) ? b : a; }

 

inline long min(long a, long b) { return (a < b) ?  a : b; } 

inline long max(long a, long b) { return (a < b) ? b : a; }

 

inline long min(int a, long b) { return (a < b) ?  long(a) : b; } 

inline long max(int a, long b) { return (a < b) ? b : long(a); }

 

inline long min(long a, int b) { return (a < b) ?  a : long(b); } 

inline long max(long a, int b) { return (a < b) ? long(b) : a; }

 

 

 

Any suggestions?  Does anyone have NTL working with an MFC application?  If
yes, can you let me know your project settings?

 

Thanks for any help.
