Hi, I'm getting a really strange error when making a method call:
/* input.cpp */
#include <ncurses/ncurses.h>
#include "input.h"
#include "command.h"
Input::Input ()
{
raw ();
noecho ();
}
Command Input::next ()
{
char input = getch ();
Command nextCommand;
switch (input)
{
case 'h':
nextCommand.setAction (ACTION_MOVELEFT);
break;
case 'j':
nextCommand.setAction (ACTION_MOVEDOWN);
break;
case 'k':
nextCommand.setAction (ACTION_MOVEUP);
break;
case 'l':
nextCommand.setAction (ACTION_MOVERIGHT);
break;
case 'y':
nextCommand.setAction (ACTION_MOVEUPLEFT);
break;
case 'u':
nextCommand.setAction (ACTION_MOVEUPRIGHT);
break;
case 'n':
nextCommand.setAction (ACTION_MOVEDOWNLEFT);
break;
case 'm':
nextCommand.setAction (ACTION_MOVEDOWNRIGHT);
break;
case '.':
nextCommand.setAction (ACTION_WAIT);
break;
}
return nextCommand;
}
and the error:
Administrator@RHYS ~/code/rogue2
$ make
g++ -c -Wall -pedantic -g3 -O0 input.cpp
input.cpp: In member function `Command Input::next()':
input.cpp:21: error: expected primary-expression before '=' token

make: *** [input.o] Error 1
Sorry about the lack of linenumbers, the errors occur on the lines "nextCommand.setAction(...)", which is totally bizarre considering that they don't contain a '='.
Any ideas? Thanks,
Rhys
