Sorry, I got confused there, I've changed the code to use mumble.get() and it 
works ok.

Uhm, well, the problem is that the makefile that the example program (source is 
example/example-c.c) is using the C compiler for linking (it's a C program so 
who could blame it), but that means that libaspell.so doesn't get linked to the 
stl lib.

That's why the build script changed CC=cc to CC=CC in the examples/Makefile

Ok, done.

For some reason the symbols defined in string_buffer.cpp do not get linked into 
libaspell.so, the error I get is:

CC -g -o .libs/example-c example-c.o  ../lib/.libs/libaspell.so 
-R/home/ffr/projects/spell/test/lib
ild: (undefined symbol) acommon::StringBuffer::StringBuffer() -- referenced in 
../lib/.libs/libaspell.so
ild: (undefined symbol) char*acommon::StringBuffer::alloc(unsigned) -- 
referenced in ../lib/.libs/libaspell.so 


I think there is some problem with a makefile somewhere, but I can't really 
change it, making the code inline in stead fixes the problem, I'd be happy to 
hear how to fix the problem correctly.

The strange thing is that it works fine with gcc, so it may be a similar 
problem to the one with iostreams.hpp in prog/aspell.cpp, but I really can't 
make heads or tails of the make files.

I could ifdef the change, but as the implementation is rather trivial I think 
it's valid to keep it inline in general.

Sure.
