Maybe incomprehensible if you don't know C++ or don't bother to read them or carve them entirely out of context (like you've done here). Every error tells you both where the error occurred, how the compiler got to that file location, and what the problem was. Literally what more do you want?
But, yeah, everything is incomprehensible if you don't comprehend it.
- michaelcampbell 6y agoI'm glad I'm not the only one with this thought. Some errors (and languages) are easier to understand than others, but there is SO MUCH text and energy wasted on languages' level of "readability". Everything is hard to read until you learn to read it. I can't read Greek; there's even a saying about it, but that doesn't make it unreadable. (Credit to Rich Hickey for that, albeit paraphrased badly.)
- sharken 6y agoI hardly think that an error such as this one points to a solution ../../build//vmc/vmc.o: In function `fix(char)': /home/user/DikuMUD3/vme/src/vmc/vmc.cpp:254: undefined reference to `init_lex(char)'
- moron4hire 6y agoI don't have a lot of experience with C++ and even I know that the most likely cause of that error is not having the linker configured correctly. It's probably something simple like a common library not being linked in.
- ebg13 6y ago> I hardly think that an error such as this one points to a solution It sounds like you don't program in C++ then. "undefined reference" is quite explicit.
