Read the comment on top of the definition in the jmorecfg.h file:

/*
 * On a few systems, type boolean and/or its values FALSE, TRUE may appear
 * in standard header files.  Or you may have conflicts with application-
 * specific header files that you want to include together with these files.
 * Defining HAVE_BOOLEAN before including jpeglib.h should make it work.
 */

So just place this line on top of all files that include the file

C++

#define HAVE_BOOLEAN
