Strange error DevCPP Irrlicht 0.12

[Guest]

What does this error message mean?

comparison between distinct pointer types `irr::scene::ISceneNode*' and `irr::scene::ISceneNode**' lacks a cast

Here some code:

Code: Select all

scene::ISceneNode* Mesh1;
scene::ISceneNode* Mesh2;
if(Mesh1 == Mesh2)

[/i]

komm schon, bidddeee!
Ich brauch hilfe.
Irgenteiner wird doch ne Lösung haben.

an equallity resolvement needs an opperator overload. eg there is no opperator for '==' for ISceneNode*
..the error message is though rather cryptic, but i am -pretty- sure its the opperator that is the problem. No solution :(

nb the prefered language on this forum is english.
also -Do take the time to sign up

Now, the error means that you compare pointers with pointers to pointers. But the code provided would never issue such an error. Either you'd declare one of the variables as ISceneNode** MeshX, or you'd use (&Mesh1 == Mesh2). Both would be wrong, but your code did not expose this.
And please, take some time. Complaining after less than an hour is ! If you have some deadline - that's your fault. If you just can't proceed - read a C++ book which could help with this or similar problems.
