I'm having a problem with included files using Think C 4.0 and was wondering if any one here had an idea as to what is going on. I have a file called Structures.h which contains all of my user defined structures. Everything was going along fine until I had to add a point variable to one of my structures. Since that addition, any file that I try to compile that uses this newly added variable, Think C will refuse giving the alert that the newly added variable is an unknown structure. I only get this alert at the points where I access that specific variable, the rest of the structure which was around before I added this new variable causes no problem at all. I have found a work around for this, that being that if the Structures.h file is open when I compile a file that depends on this new variable everything works fine. Since having this problem, I have had to add several other variables to a different structure and have run into the same problem when compiling files which depend on theses variables. I called technical support at Symantec but they were unable to help. I am running a SE/30, 4/80 using system 6.0.3. The problems above occured independent of any INIT's as I got the same results without running any INIT's at all. Right now, I am at a complete loss, the problem isn't fatal but it is annoying. Any response would be appreciated. Thanks, Mike Pyle No .sig yet ( still working on it )
