Strange struct/vector problem
Author
I have no idea what this problem is, ive tried everything. Maybe someone here can help. When i compile my program (Dev-C++) i get these errors:
10 C:\Documents and Settings\Kris2456\My Documents\Programming\Tankz\Map Editor\main.cpp
In file included from main.cpp
45 C:\Documents and Settings\Kris2456\My Documents\Programming\Tankz\Map Editor\Header.h
syntax error before `;' token
C:\Documents and Settings\Kris2456\My Documents\Programming\Tankz\Map Editor\Makefile.win
[Build Error] [main.o] Error 1
now this is the file: Haader.h, i have noted the place where the error is:
Hopefully this will fix your problem:
typedef struct
{
POINT Origin,Outer,Origin2,Outer2;
int Tex;
} BUILDING;
or
struct BUILDING
{
POINT Origin,Outer,Origin2,Outer2;
int Tex;
};
You probably want to include the vector header at the top of your include file, and use the std:: namespace before the "vector" below...
typedef struct
{
POINT Origin,Outer,Origin2,Outer2;
int Tex;
} BUILDING;
or
struct BUILDING
{
POINT Origin,Outer,Origin2,Outer2;
int Tex;
};

Doh, been a while since I posted.
I edited the post above somewhat. There are a few things I would try to fix anyway.
- Use of 'extern'. Do you really need to use global variables? It looks like you're using C++ from a C point of view.
- Not using the std:: namespace (std::vector). Are you using non-standard C++ headers or do you have a "using namespace std;" somewhere?

Yes, looks like you're coming from a C background and using C++. You poor thing. :(
In C++, the "typedef struct" idiom is no longer needed, and should be avoided.
Also, within the header file, you will still need to #include <vector> in order for a vector declaration to be understood in the header. And since that class is in the std namespace, you will have to qualify it:
You probably have many more problems coming up because of the C background (things just aren't done the same way in modern C++, even though it lets you), but I won't pretend I can fix them just from your header file...
