Searching around all the folders, a good idea in this case, I did find another file that contains this function! This file has a couple of parameters that are declared extern in my current working directory. So it looks like the author originally intended to use this function from another file and had to use it's parameters from the other file by declaring them extern. I could cut and paste the function into my code and bring the externals also into the folder to fix the problem, or I could just put the other file into my working folder and let the compiler/linker fix it that way also. Any suggestions?
