struct problems

Please help me work out why
This struct works

Code:

---

/* hashStruct */
struct test
{
    List hashTable[MAXTABLE];
    int secondVariable;
};
typedef struct test hashStruct;

---

And this struct works

Code:

---

struct myStruct
{
  char *fileName;
  char instanceName[MAX_LENGTH];
  int customers;
  int products;
  int lowerBound;
  int upperBound;
  int TotalSegments;
  int matrix[MAX_CUSTOMERS][MAX_PRODUCTS];
  Product productArray[MAX_PRODUCTS];

  /* flags section */
  int maxIterations;
  bool verbose;
  bool elimSubsumed;
  bool partition;
  bool completeMOSP;
  bool print;
  bool branchAndBound;
  bool aStarOriginal;
  bool aStarStepwise;
  bool aStarBackwards;
  bool aStarBinaryChop;
  bool Heuristic_TrivialBounds;
};
typedef struct myStruct mospData;

---

yet

Code:

---

struct myStruct
{
  char *fileName;
  char instanceName[MAX_LENGTH];
  int customers;
  int products;
  int lowerBound;
  int upperBound;
  int TotalSegments;
  int matrix[MAX_CUSTOMERS][MAX_PRODUCTS];
  Product productArray[MAX_PRODUCTS];
  List hashTable[MAXTABLE];                    // this is the different line (line 50)

  /* flags section */
  int maxIterations;
  bool verbose;
  bool elimSubsumed;
  bool partition;
  bool completeMOSP;
  bool print;
  bool branchAndBound;
  bool aStarOriginal;
  bool aStarStepwise;
  bool aStarBackwards;
  bool aStarBinaryChop;
  bool Heuristic_TrivialBounds;
};                                            // (line 65)
typedef struct myStruct mospData;

---

Gives me this message when i compile

Quote:

---

50: error: syntax error before 'List'
50: warning: no semicolon at end of struct or union
65: error: syntax error before '}' token

---

I just don't get, it must be a syntax thing but i can't work it out.
Please help!

Where is 'List' defined?


Quzah.

These are the other structs in the program

Code:

---

struct LinkedListRec
{
  int    count;
  Node*  headPtr;
};
typedef struct LinkedListRec List;

struct NodeRec
{
  Set set;
  int activeStacks;
  struct NodeRec* nextPtr;
};
typedef struct NodeRec Node;


/* the Structs required in Node */
struct setStruct
{
  bitArray value;
  int setSize;
};
typedef struct setStruct Set;

struct bitwiseArray
{
    unsigned long long high;
    unsigned long long low;
};
typedef struct bitwiseArray bitArray;

---

NOTE that the struct below works and if i can't get it to work inside the mospData struct it is likely how i will use it, however i want to understand what is happening

Code:

---

struct test
{
    List hashTable[MAXTABLE];
    int secondVariable;
};
typedef struct test hashStruct;

Are you just going to keep copy / pasting bits of structs out of context, or are you going to post a complete unedited example of what does not compile?
