Stupid error message

[timmay3141]

I'm getting a warning I get that is really annoying:

c:\program files\microsoft visual studio\vc98\include\vector(48) : warning C4786: '??0?$vector@V?$vector@VCBlock@@V?$allocator@VCBlock@@@std@@@std@@V?$allocator@V?$vector@VCBlock@@V?$allocator@VCBlock@@@std@@@std@@@2@@std@@QAE@IABV?$vector@VCBlock@@
V?$allocator@VCBlock@@@std@@@1@ABV?$allocator@V?$vector@VCBlock@@V?$allocator@VCBlock@@@std@@@std@@@1@@Z' : identifier was truncated to '255' characters in the browser information
c:\documents and settings\user\my documents\c++ workspaces\image\blockmatrix.h(39) : see reference to class template instantiation 'std::vector<class std::vector<class CBlock,class std::allocator<class CBlock> >,class std::allocator<class st
d::vector<class CBlock,class std::allocator<class CBlock> > > >' being compiled

As you can see, its huge and annoying (I get it 8 times) - and all I do is #include <vector> declare a vector. I want to get rid of this worthless error message. How can I do this?

Add this line to your program

#pragma warning( disable: 4786 )

It suppresses that specific warning message

It depends how wide-spread your use of this particular vector is, but putting this pragma in blockmatrix.h seems like a good place to start.

As you realized(?) it is a warning, not an error. A warning you can safely ignore (though I agree it is quite annoying)

To disable the warning put a
#pragma warning (disable: 4768)
into your code.

However, there's a bug in VC, #pragma warning (disable: 4768) doesn't always work.

Sometimes I get it to work, mainly by testing (trial and error) where to put it, but sometimes I never get it to work at all.

Yeah, I wrote this topic when i was having 2 different messages, 1 was an error. I got an idea about the error message (the message was worded badly and confused me), but I fixed it, and erased it from the post, but forgot to change the title to warning instead of error. Anyway, thanks for the suggestion both of you.
