[gme-users] BON VC7.1 Support

[Peter Volgyesi]

In the interfaces folder, you should patch the InterfaceColl.h file:
(add the lines marked with an asterix):

cpp_quote("#ifdef __cplusplus") \
* cpp_quote("extern \"C++\"    ") \
* cpp_quote("{            ") \
cpp_quote(MAKESTRING(template<> struct ::TypeName_MgaColl2Elem<COLL>)) \
cpp_quote(MAKESTRING({ typedef COLL collection_type; typedef ELEM 
element_type; };)) \
cpp_quote(MAKESTRING(template<> struct ::TypeName_MgaElem2Coll<ELEM>)) \
cpp_quote(MAKESTRING({ typedef COLL collection_type; typedef ELEM 
element_type; };)) \
* cpp_quote("}                        ") \
cpp_quote("#endif")

The fix will be contained by our next release. Unfortunatelly, we have 
other probelms with VC7.1 (see Gabriele's mail), that I have to resolve.
