list printing

i'm trying to print out elements in a linked list however it wont compile, apparantly next is undeclared, but i have declared it, what is wrong?

Code:

---



#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

typedef struct L {
  int      number;
  struct L *next;
} listelem;


listelem *insert_list(int n, listelem *p) {

  listelem *temp = calloc(1,sizeof(listelem));
  temp->number = n;
  temp->next = p;
  return temp;
}


listelem *read_list( void ) {
  int n;
  listelem *lp = NULL;

  scanf("%d", &n);
  while (n != 0) {
    lp = insert_list(n,lp);
    scanf("%d", &n);
  }
  printf("\n");
  return lp;
}


int main( void ) {
  listelem *lp = read_list();
  listelem *lp next;
  for( ; lp ; lp = next ) {
    printf( "%c", lp->number );
    next = lp->next;
    free( lp );
    }


  return 0;
}

---

any help is appreciated

Code:

---

for( ; lp ; lp = next ) {

---

next isn't declared. next isn't a stand alone variable. It's a member of a structure. As such, the actual variable is lp, and next is a member of lp.

Quzah.

Code:

---


int main( void ) {
  listelem *lp = read_list();
  listelem *lp next;                <---------- ?

If you had read the error message the compiler gave you, and gone to the line number it gave you, this should have been pretty obvious(?).

so how do i need to adjust it?

ive sorted my problem out now, i was being silly....
