sahasrab,

Thanks for trying out rtProtoLS and finding out problems. 

I am not good with the compiler thing either, but I would suggest that you try 
comment out that line altogether, and see if the compiler will generate the 
correct default constructor for it.

Thanks for reporting the problemI'd appreciate it if you can tell me how it 
goes.
