[geos-devel] Build errors in StringTokenizer.cpp with 3.5.0/trunk/branch-3.5

[Jeff McKenna]

Hello everyone,

Compiling on Windows with Visual Studio 2008 I get the same errors with 
the 3.5.0 release, SVN trunk, and branch 3.5, but I can't find any 
mention of this problem in Trac or on this list.  Here is the error:

****

member of 'std'

If I had to guess, I would guess that these are C89 issues (not 
declaring variables at beginning of the block).
