error: expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’, ‘asm’ or ‘__attribute__’ before ‘extern’

[singhPrabhat]

Hi,
I am using gcc (GCC) 4.2.1 (SUSE Linux).
SUSE 10.3

While compiling a .c file I get following error ::::



CCWebConfiguration.h:70: error: expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’, ‘asm’ or ‘__attribute__’ before ‘extern’
CCWebBrowser.c: In function ‘main’:
CCWebBrowser.c:134: error: ‘CUSTOMERCENTRAL_HEADER_TEXT’ undeclared (first use in this function)
CCWebBrowser.c:134: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
CCWebBrowser.c:134: error: for each function it appears in.)
CCWebBrowser.c:180: warning: incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function ‘strlen’
CCWebBrowser.c:185: warning: incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function ‘strcpy’
CCWebBrowser.c:241: warning: incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function ‘strlen’
CCWebBrowser.c:311: error: ‘iDumpLevel’ undeclared (first use in this function)
CCWebBrowser.c:616: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size
CCWebBrowser.c:645: warning: incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function ‘strcpy’
CCWebBrowser.c:646: warning: incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function ‘strlen’


can anybody help me out.
Thanks

Without seeing any code I guess that you've made a typo at, or before line 70 in
your .h file; you also forgot to #include <string.h> n your .c file.

kind regards,

Jos

ps. next time also include some relevant code and not just those error messages.
We don't like to guess here. Also please use the proper code tags for readability.

after adding <string.h> I am now not getting any warning regarding strlen,strcpy etc. but I still facing following error

What command you use to compile the code....
Are you specifying the _D option for this CUSTOMERCENTRAL_V10
as there is a #ifdef in your code

[singhPrabhat]

gcc -c file_name.c

Please suggest some useful ways.

Carefully read that line 70 and before; there is a typo in there somewhere. I am
not your corrector, you have to do it yourself. A keyword 'extern' wasn't expected
at that particular location.

#ifdef CUSTOMERCENTRAL_V10
#define CUSTOMERCENTRAL_HEADER_TEXT "Customer Central All Rights Reserved.\n"
#else
ERROR_INVALID_CUSTOMERCENTRAL_VERSION
#endif
....
extern int foo;
 

you have not defined that _v10 stuff, hence not defined HEADER_TEXT ( error ) and have stray ERROR_INVALID_... in your code before #else and #endif, the rest ( ...) is ifdef-ed and you end up with

ERROR_INVALID_CUSTOMERCENTRAL_VERSION extern int foo;

compiler objects - in doesn't like ERROR_INVALID before extern.
