old g++ compile error with CVS

[gandalf]

With the current CVS I get this compile error (g++ 2.95.4 and debian linux stable 3.0). At somepoint I will finaly upgrade so I don't have to complain about my crappy compiler and STL libraries.
I made it compile by changing .clear() to ="" If it works? Who knows?

Same change in textbox.cpp line 54.

g++ -O2 -Wall -I. -Isrc -Isrc/tools -Isrc/widgets `sdl-config --cflags` `freetype-config --cflags` -c src/multiplayer.cpp -o src/multiplayer.o
src/multiplayer.cpp: In function `void play_multiplayer(display &, game_data &, config, game_state &, bool = true)':
src/multiplayer.cpp:292: no matching function for call to `basic_string<char,string_char_traits<char>,__default_alloc_template<true,0> >::clear ()'
make: *** [src/multiplayer.o] Error 1

gandalf,

I have checked in a fix for this.

Personally I would prefer you stay with version 2.9 so you can continue reporting problems with compiling on 2.9

At this stage, I am committed to ensuring it can compile on 2.9

Same problem with gcc 2.95.4 in FreeBSD.

Dave, you have corrected problem in multiplayer.cpp but not in textbox.cpp

okay problem in textbox.cpp should now be fixed.
