Error: reference to ‘Medium’ is ambiguous

Garfield++

Dear experts

I tried to rebuild my program which has succeeded many times, but after rebuild Garfield++ I got an error:

/group/had/muon/ssun/crt_simulation/time_resolution/diffusion_boundary/src/xt_simulation.cxx:112:9: error: reference to ‘Medium’ is ambiguous

I never get such error before. (I used the same version of Garfield++, but the system environment was different, and after environment changed I already rebuilt Garfield++), what should I do?

Hi,
hmm, I don’t think I’ve seen this error before. Can you clarify what you mean by “the system environment was different, and after environment changed I already rebuilt Garfield++”? Which environment are you using?
