CodeSnippets using nonstandard C++

Re: Multi File editing

Moved here from "Multi File editing" thread:

What part of CodeSnippets is nonstandard C++ ?

Maybe we can fix that if we knew what you mean.

In memorymappedfile.cpp, you'll see that every function has separate Windows code and Linux code.  It follows this pattern:

Code

#ifdef __WXMSW__
  // (Code intended to build in Windows)
#else
  // (Code intended to build in Linux)
#endif

Since __WXMSW__ is not defined, my build blows up trying to build Linux-specific code.

Code

../memorymappedfile.cpp: In member function 'long int wxMemoryMappedFile::MapFile(const wxString&, bool)':
../memorymappedfile.cpp:107: error: 'open' was not declared in this scope
../memorymappedfile.cpp:124: error: 'MAP_FILE' was not declared in this scope

Thought #1:  Does wxWindows include a file operation API so we can outright eliminate this fragile code?

Thought #2:  I've read that MAP_FILE is legacy and is #defined as 0.  Can someone verify this? 

I don't know what this would break on other platforms, but I'm adding this code to the file and am trying a build now....

Code

#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#ifndef MAP_FILE
     #define MAP_FILE 0
#endif

I've found a way around this.
CodeSnippets will no longer need the memory mapped file code.

I'll commit after I run the code for some days.

Nice, Pecan.

I saw the drop, Pecan.  Awesome.

I'll be able to test it Monday-ish.
