My project compiles OK on several Linux platforms. But when I compile it under windows, it claims the following error:

This is the content around ostream line 335:

      /**

and this is the beginning of genoeye_perl.h, which includes both Perl headers and C++ headers:

extern "C"
{
#include "EXTERN.h"
#include "perl.h"
#include "XSUB.h"
#include "ppport.h"
}

#include <genoeye/Common.h>
#include <genoeye/Page.h>
#include <genoeye/Frame.h>
#include <genoeye/Track.h>
#include <genoeye/Segment.h>
#include <genoeye/Elem.h>
#include <genoeye/Block.h>
#include <genoeye/Tag.h>
#include <genoeye/Chart.h>
#include <genoeye/HomologRegion.h>
#include <genoeye/ElemConnect.h>

the "write" function declaration is probably conflict with Perl's internal definition. How can I solve this problem?

I'm using the MinGW toolchain provided with strawberry perl 5.20.1.1. This issue also occurs with older versions of strawberry perl.

------

Pretty sad, simply undefine the Perl-induced macro don't work

extern "C"
{
#include "EXTERN.h"
#include "perl.h"
#include "XSUB.h"
#include "ppport.h"
}

#undef write

#include <genoeye/Common.h>
......

This does not change anything. This is very suprise.
