How to use struct as a parameter in a module?
Author
In VC++ I have built module.h and module.cpp. In module.h I have created struct vector3{}, and in module.cpp I have created a function in witch i want a paremeter to be vector3.
Like function(vector3 *pVector);. But this cant be done cos it cant compile. How can I built a function in module.cpp that accepts vector3 as a parameter?
Quote:Original post by rytThe way you have it there is correct, there must be some other problem. What's the exact error message?

It compiles, and it works.
If your code doesn't work, you're probably doing it wrong. Since we cannot be expected to guess why, you should provide us with the exact error message, the line of code where it happens, as well as the definitions of all involved objects.

This is the header:
This is from .cpp:

Nope, I never did before also but it always worked (but i didnt use custom structs). Now that i include it i have eaven more errors, i need to chech them out.
