Re: [Brahms-dev-l] BrMainDb compile question

Hello. It looks like your GCC is newer and stricter.  Although 
BrMain::ConnectToDB returns Bool_t, the code seems to ignore that fact, 
and it pretends to be  void method.  I guess that is not quite right.  I 
would say that one easy fix could be replace the line include 
ConnectToDB to something like
if ( !ConnectToDB( ( BrDb*)  XYZ, user)  cout << "Failed to connect 
database" << endl;  // or some better comment.
where XYZ is fFileCatalogDB, fGeoDB, etc..
