Getting %CC-E-REDEFSTRUCT Error

XMAN_1 — Wed, 22 Feb 2006 15:04:25 GMT

Hello! Guru's,

Need help over here!! :)

I am getting the following redefine structure error when compiling the source code on OpenVMS 7.2-1 using DEC C 6.0-001 compiler.

---------------------------------------------
typedef struct _ctb {
........^
%CC-E-REDEFSTRUCT, In this declaration, the struct "_ctb" is redefined.
---------------------------------------------

Strange things is when compiling the same source code on VMS 6.2-1H3 using the same DEC C 6.0-001 compiler I am not getting this error.

Many thanks in advance!

Note:
I have already checked and applied the HP provided solution regarding time.h & signal.h and its not working either.

XMAN,

I didn't check it, I would like you to check this header file rpb.h for any declaration about struct ctb.

Though you use same DEC C version, your VMS 7.2-1 may have difft library; your default library may be pointing to this, where the rpb.h may have the duplicate definition of ctb struct.

Check this, if it is, then try comment your ctb struct declaration in the program.

Thanks Archunan!

I have found the conflicting structure declaration of "_CTB" in SYS$COMMON:[SYSLIB]SYS$LIB_C.TLB for Console Terminal Block and renamed my _CTB structure decalaration to a different name to avoid conflit.

It's often helpful to compile with /LIST
/SHOW = ALL, and then scan the listing file
for the source of the complaint, here,
"_ctb".
