Re: Problems Editing an Include mbr..

["Jeffrey Silberberg" <jsilberberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Bruce,

        I had found that the symbolic to QSYSINC. Thank You.  But, why can't
I edit this stuff ??  I can EDIT (At my own risk) any AIX, or LINUX system
include why can't I edit the AS/400 versions.

        Also, here is the error, and copy of the include.  Do you see any
ERROR in the compile switches that might be causing the error condition I
receive,  to me the TYPEDEF looks wrong unless the developer was trying to
redefine the structure and an IFDEF, or another INCLUDE is missing in this
include.  But the way it is now line 86 is a redefine of line 61, hence the
definition of  _LU_Work_Area_T as a type def is in error.   I am utilizing
Page 106 of "The Annotated C++ Refernce Manual" by Margaret A. Ellis and
Bjarne Stroustrup as my reference base on this.

        One foot note, I am compiling source.c not source.cpp modules.

        Thanks for your help,
         Jeff Silberberg
