[Dev-C++] typedef signed char int8_t;

Hello all.

 

I 've been trying to compile FreeCad and came across the following error:

 

Error      422         error C2371: 'int8_t' : redefinition; different basic
types               c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio
10.0\VC\include\stdint.h              17           1
SketcherGui

 

This error occur more than 300 times and it is  related  to the following
line  typedef signed char int8_t; which exist in the stdint.h. As you can
see stdint.h is a MSVC 10 file.

 

In one of the files where this error occur the line is

 

InputStream& operator >> (int8_t& ch);

 

 

I tried to google the error but couldn't find anything useful.

 

Any help will be very much appreciated.

 

TIA
