#187486 - Does not compile
Responding to: ???'s previous message
The code you show will not compile. Please fix those errors first while learning to best C on the way.

Then I strongly recommend against putting definitions (the actual instantiations) of variables in header files. Only put extern declarations in header files and define the variables in a .c file. Make sure the implementation file also includes the header file with declarations so the compiler can verify the definitions against the declarations.
