Re: Neural networks - API or class

Hi Chris

You are right, the __attribute__(packed) should be removed on borland
compilers. It is only used in gnu compilers.

I have developed the library using the gnu compiler on linux and it is a
few years since I have used the borland compiler, but I am pretty sure
that I can help you with your problem.

The problem with unresolved links, are due to the fact that you need to
include the source files in your project and not just the header files.
(Perhabs you can create an obj file). The source files that you need to
include are fann.c and fann_internal.c.

I hope that this will do the trick but if not, then do not hesitate to
write back.

I will include these mails in my sourceforge site
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/fann/), so please reply to me telling
whether my suggestions work for you. Perhabs I could make a borland
readme file.

Regards,
Steffen
