Unfortunately, without a code sample that illustrates the problem you're
having, or even a copy of the error message, I have no idea.
Can you please try reducing your code to a small complete testcase that
reproduces the problem, and forward that to the list along with a copy
of your compilation command including any option flags you're using, and
the exact error message that you get?
If you need help with reducing your code to a small testcase, ask and
I'll see if I can find some references. The general process is to make
a copy of the code, and then delete portions of it that appear to be
unrelated to the bug, recompiling after each step to confirm that the
error remains. If the error goes away, add back in the last bit that
you deleted, and try removing something else. Repeat until there's
nothing left that can be removed. Except in rare cases, the end result
should be no longer than 50 lines, and it's usually a lot shorter.
(That can be a good debugging technique in general; often, when you're
reducing the code, you'll get about halfway through and realize where
the bug is coming from because you can now see it clearly.)
Hope this helps,
