    have you touched main.c?
    You added one to many of something on pages 256, 331 and 343. possibly an extra '{' or something
  • Felix     27th Nov 2010 Member 0 Permalink
    Have you changed PT_NUM?
  • Simon     27th Nov 2010 Administrator 0 Permalink
    1. Delete ._main.c
    2. You may have forgotten to change PT_NUM.

    That added more errors. They now take up 11 pages on Word Processor.
    Vanadium:
    have you touched main.c?

    I have not touched main.c I have only changed powder.h and powder.c

    warnings are not errors, search through and see what the errors are.

    Yes they are...errors in the code cause the warning, therefore they are errors. Those that say "error" in front of them are not clear. They state no line number of character.

    delete ._main.c ....

    also when it compiles, you end up with thousands of warnings. they don't do anything

    Delete main.c and put in another one

    treating warnings as errors depends on how anal you want to be about standards. If you want to go through the source and remove them all, go for it. Otherwise they don't have any negative impact on the program.
