Passing struct pointer to function

[Mungovan]

Hi.

This is my boggle: I have a structure defined and typedef'd to "node".

I want to pass a pointer to the node to a function called highNode.

At the start of the program I have the definition:

void highNode(node *n);

then in the program itself I do:

int *node_ptr;
node_ptr = &node;
highNode(node_ptr);

Then at the end of the program I write the function with:

void highNode(node *n){ ##
//operations on n.
}

But the error I'm getting is at line ## saying:

"highNode:local function definitions are illegal"

Any ideas??

Thanks
D

Have you closed you main function before you begin the definition of the highNode function? ______________________________________________________________________

You'r right, I didn't notice that last curly brackets right at the end.
Thanks.
