   We recently upgraded from BC++ 2.0 to BC++ 3.0. We already had the OWL libraries and these worked fine with BC++ 2.0.

   When we tried to compile an application that used owl.h we got errors from the compiler. We thought it might be somthing in our application but we found that
even the example program step1.cpp would not compile. We tried BC++ 3.0 and
TC++ 3.0 without success. The errors from the compiler are as follows.


Compiling STEP1.CPP:

   I am new to windows, BC++ and PC's in general, so I do not understand what is
happening here. I have tried everything I can think of.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
