problem with struct?

It seems that there is some problem with struct TCB
but I cannot find out what's wrong with it.
Please help!
Thank you very much!

The head file is the following:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

thr_init.c is the following:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Code:

#include "uthread.h" 

void thr_init() 
{ 
// initiate thread queue 
head = (TCB *)malloc(sizeof(TCB)); 
head->next = NULL; 
head->id = 0; 
head->state = RUNNING; 
head->result = NULL; 
head->acn = 1; 
head->qtime = 0; 

。。。。。。。。。。。。。。 
}

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
when I compile, the following problems always comes out:
"thr_init.c", line 1: warning: invalid white space character in directive （why it is invalid?）
"uthread.h", line 58: syntax error before or at: TCB
"uthread.h", line 64: member cannot be function: thr_init
"uthread.h", line 65: member cannot be function: thr_quantum
"uthread.h", line 66: member cannot be function: thr_create
"uthread.h", line 67: member cannot be function: thr_exit
"uthread.h", line 68: member cannot be function: thr_join
"uthread.h", line 69: member cannot be function: thr_diagnostics
"uthread.h", line 70: member cannot be function: thr_summary

1. Do you really have something like "# ifndef" on line 1, where there's a space between?

2. You cannot use a typedef name before it has been typedef'ed. So TCB isn't a valid name until you get to TCB; at the end of line 59. That does you no good in line 58. You'll have to give the struct a real name, like

Code:

typedef struct realname {
  /* all your stuff */
  struct realname *next;
} TCB;

The other errors are as if the compiler couldn't find the end of the typedef; fix these other errors first and see what happens.

your recommendation works.
Thank you very much!

but there is still a problem with "warning: invalid white space character in directive"

Notice that that's line 1 of "thr_init.c", not this header file. (I didn't notice that the first time either.) So look at that line 1 and take out the illegal space.

The following is my code

Code:

1.#include "uthread.h"

void thr_init()
{
	// initiate thread queue
	head = (TCB *)malloc(sizeof(TCB));
	head->next = NULL;
	head->id = 0; 
	head->state = RUNNING;
	head->result = NULL;
	head->acn = 1;
	head->qtime = 0;

	//record start exe time for main thread
	if (gettimeofday(&head->exest, NULL)) 
	{
      fprintf(stderr, "cannot get start time of main thread\n");
      exit(1);
	}

	//record context
	ucontext_t headcontext;
	if (getcontext(&headcontext)!=0)
	{
		fprintf( stderr, "cannot get context for main thread" );
		exit(1);
	}
	head->context = headcontext;

	//start timer
	time_t n = THR_QUANTUM_DEFAULT;
	thr_quantum(n); 
33.}

the current problem:
"thr_init.c", line 1: warning: invalid white space character in directive
"thr_init.c", line 33: warning: newline not last character in file

I cannot figure out why it always warns me these

"thr_init.c", line 33: warning: newline not last character in file

That one should be easy for you to figure out.

"thr_init.c", line 1: warning: invalid white space character in directive

Did you write this code yourself? What OS and text editor did you use?

Yes.
I write this code by my self
my OS is solaris unix
my text editor is vi

Somehow some weird character got in your file. Does your vi show you [unix] at the bottom when you edit this file? (It would be worse if it said [dos] or [mac], but I think you have to set filemode to automatically show yourself.) It's a silly suggestion, but:
go to line 1 of your .c file
type dd to delete the line
type it in again very carefully
save it and try again

More than that, I don't know.

It would help if you used [code][/code] tags for code, instead of trying to be creative.
