In Pelles C 6.50 RC2(32 bit):
I cannot define __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT2__ and use "wchar.h" at the same time.


#define __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT2__ 1

#include <stdio.h>
#include <wchar.h>

int main(void)
{
 return 0;
}


Error message:

QuoteC:\Program Files\PellesC\Include\wchar.h(283): error #2119: Redeclaration of 'ssize_t', previously declared at C:\Program Files\PellesC\Include\stdio.h(344).

With compiler option Define compatibility names that can be compiled.

Thanks, that solved my problem.

The latests draft I have for TR24731-2 (n1337.pdf) just introduces the type ssize_t without further explanation, and since this type is not part of standard C99 I don't know how to handle this right now. Perhaps the next draft will be better...
