Some marco definitions are conflicting with other packages.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Include logging.h after windows.h
2. Include logging.h atter UnitTest++.h

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I've just started using glog in my project. but there are some problems.
Some definition are conflicting with other header's definition.

For example, ERROR is defined in wingdi.h, CHECK is defined in UnitTest++.
I think the macro names are too general. 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Visual Studio C++ 2005, Win32, UnitTest++

Please provide any additional information below.

Yeah, I was aware of this issue. Maybe adding 'G' or something as the prefix 
character 
would solve this (e.g., GLOG(GERROR) << "foobar"). Of course, we would want to 
make 
this feature optional. This fix may take a while. For ERROR, if you are not 
using GDI 
actually,  please define a C macro NOGDI for the meantime.

Thanks,

I use patch below to eliminate this error and on Windows you should include the 
GLOG
library BEFORE any other library.

In my case I use the GLOG library after STL, but before boost.

Hope this helps

Yeah, I think this patch solves 80% of this issue. However, unfortunately, I 
think 
this patch won't work for some cases such as

int level = ERROR;  // ERROR will be replaced by 0
LOG_AT_LEVEL(level) << "foobar";
