global variable scope
PostPosted: Thu Feb 05, 2009 2:50 am     Reply with quote
Hi,
I'm having a bit of a problem which may relate to a variable not being global for all source files.

I have a structure declared in main.c
Code:
extern STATUS_TABLE_TYPE   status_table;

Then when I try and access some of the elements of the structure from a different source file, I get
Quote:
Expecting a structure/Union status_table

Any help would be great
thanks,
Matt

Works now if I declare it from a header file. Perhaps the order it's called in is affecting it or something.
