In trying to compile OgreNewt (CVS) against Ogre (CVS) using VC .NET 2003, I'm getting the following error:
inc\OgreNewt_BasicFrameListener.h(54) : error C2039: 'InputReader' : is not a member of 'Ogre'
Any ideas on where my problem lies would be most appreciated. Getting OgreNewt compiled is my last step on a long list of prerequisites to getting python-ogre compiled from source ...

Then you should follow the directions a little more closely
. The
Compiling page on the wiki for Python-Ogre. Says that you need to apply the
patch for ogrenewt so that it will not try and compile the BasicFrame listener.
That was the short answer. The long answer was that OgreNewt is not being actively maintained, and Ogre 1.4 hasn't been released yet. So the frame listener tries to use the Ogre input system which no longer exists in Ogre. We have a Python version of the frame listener that use OIS for the demos.

once the new version of Ogre is released, I will fix OgreNewt to use OIS.

Oops. I took the first line of the instructions that says "get everything here first" to mean "get it and compile it". As I now understand it, I shouldn't actually be building these modules via their visual studio solution files ...

Well the vcproj files are just text, so the patch should include the fix to them as well. I'll see if I can get Andy to update the patch.
once the new version of Ogre is released, I will fix OgreNewt to use OIS.
If I whip up a patch that includes Scons scripts for Linux support as well as small change to the ContactCallback class (providing accessors to the material and contact members) could it be applied to CVS head?
Then along with that, could a release be made soon after Ogre 1.4 and your OIS fixes are in? Being able to point people at zip/tarball on source forge and say "compile that" lowers the barrier of entry for new OgreNewt users.

May as well mention, new version of Ogre is released.

The RC stage won't be over for a month, so every body has time to catch up.

if you can get me a patch for the Linux stuff, that would be great! I will try to update to the latest Ogre this weekend.

I have downloaded the new 1.4.0 RC1, so I will work on updating OgreNewt over the weekend.
