I have three files.


graph.h:

My header file where I have typedef for my structure and function
delcaration

typedef struct _ipc_actors ipc_graph_actors;
typedef ipc_graph_type *ipc_graph_pointer;

ipc_graph_pointer ipc_graph_new(graph_pointer,char *, char *, char *,
char *, char *);



graph.c:


My funciton is implemented in this file. And also my sturcture defition
are in this file.


main.c:


Here I am calling my fuction ipc_graph_new(graph_pointer,char *, char
*, char *, char *, char *);


This return a one pointer which is pointer to struture which I have
define din graph.c


But when I try to use this pointer to access the attributes of this
structure it gives me following error:

dereferencing pointer to incomplete type.


I think I have to use extern somewhere, but I am not sure.
