Problem:
With the Evolver Developer's Kit, I can successfully run your examples. I am now trying to include Evload.cpp and your header file (Evolver_types.h, Evolver_funcs.h) into my program, written in Visual C++ Studio 6.0. Unfortunately, when I attempt to compile my program, I get:

ERROR C4226. Nonstandard extension used: '_huge' is an obsolete keyword in Evolver_TYPES.H.

How can I eliminate this error and compile my code?

Response:
The "_huge" keyword is obsolete in the 32-bit platform Visual Studio 6.0. The C++ compiler is supposed to just ignore it, and it does ignore it when compiling the examples. However, if the keyword does not get ignored and causes errors during compilation, you can just delete it from lines 6 and 7 in Evolver_types.h.
