Can't assign struct variable in header file
Hi guys.
I have a header file including a structure like this:
Code:
typedef struct
{
    int index = -1;
    stack_node *head;
} stack;

But when compiling with cc it shows error at the assignment line (int index = -1):
Code:
error: expected ‘:', ‘,', ‘;', ‘}' or ‘__attribute__' before ‘=' token

should I add an initialization function to initialize variables?

The problem is that you can not initialize members in a structure definition.
