Compiling Sundance-4.73

I am compiling Sundance-4.37 using gcc 3.4.6. SUNDANCE (Sentence UNDerstanding ANd Concept Extraction) and autoannotate are software developed by the NLP laboratory at the University of Utah. Sundance comes prepackaged with OpinionFinder.

It is compiled using an install script. During compilation, throws the following error:

creating ../src/Makefile
g++ -Wall -Wno-deprecated -pipe -g -static -I../include -DHOME=\"/home/shahw/opinionfinder/software/sundance-4.37/\" -c -fPIC -o shared/activation.o activation.C
constituent.h:131: error: extra qualification ‘Constituent::’ on member ‘getWordhelper’
make: *** [shared/activation.o] Error 1

Lines 130-132 of constituent.h are:

protected:
  Word* Constituent::getWordhelper(unsigned int&, unsigned int) const;
};

Any hints would be greatly appreciated.

Solution

  • You don't use the class name as a prefix for the member functions inside the class, just if defining them outside. Just remove that prefix.

    protected:
    Word* getWordhelper(unsigned int&, unsigned int) const;
};
