i have a struct defined in a .h file

now 2 other C files are in cluding this .h file

so during make file i get a error sayiny that the variables in this structure are being redifined

how do i encounter this

i would also like to know what causes this

Are you including that header file in any other header file.
If Yes, that may due to multiple inclusion of that header file, may be included indirectly from some other header file.

Found the mistake

a stupid one to

Didnt do A #ifndef
#endif
