Katie,
The mistakes you are making are very basic C/C++ mistakes. They have =
nothing to do with ODE or its documentation. I think that before you =
attempt to go any further with ODE, you should find a book or other =
resource that will help you bring your C/C++ up to a sufficient level.
Good luck, and I'm sure we'll all be thrilled to help when you come back =
with some ODE specific questions.
Brian

where abouts?
I tried:
>const dMass *mass;
>
>dMassSetBox (mass, density,lx, ly, lz);
>
>dBodySetMass (firstBodyID, mass);
and it says it cant convert from const struct dMass * to struct dMass =
* in the dMassSetBox function. But its a redefinition if I declare it =
as dMass *mass too.... if I put in &mass in the setBox function then it =
says cant convert from const struct dMass ** to struct dMass *
help! :)
this doesn't work...
original documentation code:
void dBodySetMass (dBodyID, const dMass *mass);
void dBodyGetMass (dBodyID, dMass *mass);
