flann-1.8.4 Build on Windows VS2022 - Fails with platform toolset v143 - works with platform toolset v142

[scudelari]

Hello All,

I am having the following issue with building FLANN from source on windows.
1- I get the code and use CMAKE to generate the VSSolution. Note that I am disabling python, c and matlab bindings.
2- I am using Visual Studio 2022 - Platform toolset v143 C++ ISO 14.

I get the following compile error on the heap.h file:
heap.h(108,50): error C2143: syntax error: missing ',' before '<'
This is the faulting snippet:
struct CompareT : public std::binary_function<T,T,bool> { bool operator()(const T& t_1, const T& t_2) const { return t_2 < t_1; } };

NOW, if I change the platform toolset to v142, it works.

I strongly think this is a bug. I am not the best C++ programmer out there and I do not know the nuances on why the same code fails when using v143 instead of v142.

What can I do to fix the code in heap.h so that it will build in v143?

Thank you!

I actually found what seems to be a solution to the problem. I included the header "functional" to the heap.h file and it builds on v143.

#ifndef FLANN_HEAP_H_
#define FLANN_HEAP_H_

#include <algorithm>
#include <vector>
#include <functional>
