I don't see anything wrong with line #2 of the
TME_BasicParameters.hfile. Are you using.cor.cppfiles?"Love people and use things, not love things and use people." - Unknown

The majority of the project files are .c, written a long, long time ago. I've been assigned to maintain and add a few new features. My goal was to make the newer features more object oriented as opposed to millions of structs that the old code was using. I could always give up and continue adding to the endless amount of structs, but I wanted to begin adding more object oriented techniques and get away from some of the older c stuff.

Which may be why the compiler is complaining about the
classkeyword."Love people and use things, not love things and use people." - Unknown

Aren't most compilers smart enough to cross compile c and c++ files in the same project, or am I confused?

There's nothing wrong with having .c and .cpp files in the same project.

I suppose they're smart enough to consider
*.cfiles asCsources, while*.cppones asC++sources. :)If the Lord God Almighty had consulted me before embarking upon the Creation, I would have recommended something simpler. -- Alfonso the Wise, 13th Century King of Castile.
This is going on my arrogant assumptions. You may have a superb reason why I'm completely wrong. -- Iain Clarke -

correct, but what I'm trying to do is make a class in a .cpp file. Long story short I gave up and I'm using structs now, but structs cant have member functions, so I'm confused. I've only been exposed to OOP in c++, and I've poked c with a 10 foot pole once. I need member functions for the struct, or is that strictly c++ OOP? Google isn't turning up much when I search for member functions for structs, I'm guessing this is a lost cause as well. dumb programming question #2 : If I was trying to make a more object oriented approach in c, where would I begin? That might be a basic question, but if you've been reading, all my attempts so far have failed, or are wrong... moral : Colleges need more classes on just c and non OOP approaches. In school we had 10+ c++ OOP classes, and one c class where they said "This is c, no one uses it anymore, but now you've been exposed to it..."

Only
C++structs allow member functions (C++ structs are just classes with different default visibility rules). Maybe I missed a point: if you needOOP, while are you usingClanguage?VonHagNDaz wrote:

Use
C++.Clanguage is best suited for structured programming. There's nothing wrong in following structured programming paradigm: for small projects it is a winning approach. On the other hand, if you need to exploitOOPadvantages, you should use an object oriented language, suchC++. :)If the Lord God Almighty had consulted me before embarking upon the Creation, I would have recommended something simpler. -- Alfonso the Wise, 13th Century King of Castile.

all of the source is in c. This is a massive amount of code I'm maintaining and adding new features to. I thought that I could use .cpp classes, include the .h files in the .c files, and access the object's member functions through pointers. The approach made sense to me, but I guess I'm stuck with c structs and no member functions.

Why don't you upgrade to
C++(i.e. rename from.cto.cpp) the files wherein you want to use classes? :)If the Lord God Almighty had consulted me before embarking upon the Creation, I would have recommended something simpler. -- Alfonso the Wise, 13th Century King of Castile.
