Hello, I was trying to build the latest PolyVox from download page and I ran into this error when building the solution in VS2008, is there a fix for it? -

Code:

Error   1   error C2782: 'PolyVox::Vector<Size,Type> PolyVox::operator /(const PolyVox::Vector<Size,Type> &,const Type &) throw()' : template parameter 'Type' is ambiguous   c:\Users\Andrew\Downloads\PolyVox-GIT-2e4bf67\examples\OpenGL\Shapes.cpp   33   OpenGLExample

I'm not sure why it's ambiguous... can you try replacing:

Code:

//This vector hold the position of the center of the volume
Vector3DInt32 v3dVolCenter = (volData.getEnclosingRegion().getUpperCorner() - volData.getEnclosingRegion().getLowerCorner()) / 2;

with:

Code:

//This vector hold the position of the center of the volume
Vector3DInt32 v3dVolCenter = (volData.getEnclosingRegion().getUpperCorner() - volData.getEnclosingRegion().getLowerCorner());
int32_t divisor = 2;
v3dVolCenter = v3dVolCenter / divisor;

Does it give the same error?

Yes, that worked. But why?

I don't exactly know... can you change it back to how it was, rebuild, and give me the full compiler output (not just the list of errors)? I think in there it should say what the candidates are.
