I want to calc the face normal with CalcFaceNormal. MSVC++ does compile it without hesitation but my CodeWarrior 8 does tell me:

    
    
    Polygon trianglep,triangleq;
    
    
    
    
    [...] //Polygon is filled inbetween
    
    
    
    
    n1 = CalcFaceNormal(vadr,trianglep);

Error : function call 'CalcFaceNormal(const Vector *, {lval} Polygon)' does not match
'CalcFaceNormal(Vector *, const Polygon &)'
SelectTool.cpp line 23 n1 = CalcFaceNormal(vadr,trianglep);
Anybody any idea?
Thanks

Looks like you are trying to pass a 'const Vector*', but CalcFaceNormal wants just a 'Vector *' although it should really be taking a const! just cast it and it'll be fine, and safe since CalcFaceNormal is not changing anything, or, look at why you have 'vadr' as a const, was it passed to you like this?

Ah yeah! Casting it really did it. And no, it wasn´t passed to me like this.
Thanks Dave
