Greetings,

I am trying to compile Interviews3.01 using gcc2.1. 
I am getting an error with this line.

 istream in(strlen(definition) + 1,definition);

Apparently the two constructors for istream in the  
gcc2.1 include file iostream.h

 istream();
 istream(streambuf* sb, ostream*tied=NULL);

do not support those arguments. I looked in
the AT&T C++ compiler(We dont have it!) and I noticed
the include files contained this comment

public: /*** Obsolete constructors, carried over from stream package ***/
                        istream(streambuf*, int sk, ostream* t=0) ;
                                /* obsolete, set sk and tie
                                 * via format state variables */
                        istream(int size ,char*,int sk=1) ;
                                /* obsolete, use strstream */
                        istream(int fd,int sk=1, ostream* t=0) ;
                                /* obsolete use fstream */

So Interviews is calling a obsolete constructor(in AT&T C++). 
Is there another constructor in gcc that I can use in place
of istream(int size, char*, sk=1)?
