"initialize r element not constant" issue

[zoeb]

Hi,

I am declaring an array which carries x coordinates, however these will vary depending on the geometry the user enters.

I have set my code up as follows, but get the "initialize r element not constant" issue. I had the code compiling earlier, but made the mistake of moving thing aorund without taking a backup and now nothing works!

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

/*============== =============== =============== ===========*/
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <grx20.h>

/*Declare types of parameters entered */
float x1, x2, x3, yone, y2, y3;
float x23;
int NoMembers, NoNodes;


main()

{

x1 = 4;
x2 = 2;
x3 = 6;
yone = 4;
y2 = 10;
y3 = 14;


x23 = 6;

}

float x1co[] = {-x1, x1, x1, -x23, -x23, x23, x23, -x2, x2, x2, -x3, -x2, x2, x3};

Well everything I'm seeing here should work fine, so the problem's most likely in a part of your program that is not posted here.

Thanks for the help, I copied it into another source file and it compiled no problem! Thanks anyway!

That wasn't the problem: the first time you tried to compile it as if it were a C file;
the last time you used a C++ compiler.

kind regards,
