Thread: Problems with Struct

Hey, how can I make a type of structure global? for example the code below does not compile.

Code:

struct sponsor
{
	HBITMAP banner;
	char bannerSite[150];
};
sponsor add;
add.banner = NULL;
add.banner = "www.google.com"

Instead I have to do something like:

Code:

struct sponsor
{
	HBITMAP banner;
	char bannerSite[150];
};

int main()
{
	sponsor add;
	add.banner = NULL;
	add.bannerSite = "www.google.com";
}

Anyways if I can't do whats in the first example how can I make add global?

You have to initialize the struct inside main or whatever function you like to call. But the variable can be declared outside the function.

Code:

struct sponsor
{
	HBITMAP banner;
	char bannerSite[150];
};
sponsor add;

void main()
{
	add.banner = NULL;
	add.bannerSite = "www.google.com";
}
