Using multiple files

[TheLoneWolf]

How do I make my main.cpp realize that I have declared all my stat structs in another file? I have added that file in my project, but it still gives those "not initialized" errors. Help?

Pls use " " and write your code in it,we will tell you where its wrong/wht to do based upon your
needs.

K.

//structs.cpp

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

struct character
{
int HP;
int ammo;
};

character player {500, 20};

//main.cpp

#include <iostream>

int main ()
{
std::cout << player.HP;
return 0;
}

I added structs.cpp to my project. But when I run it, it gives an error that player.HP is not initialized.

Why are you trying to use the global variable?

The problem is that main.cpp doesn't know how your structure is defined or how and what a player is defined.

I suggest you put your structure definition in a header file, and make your "player" a variable local to some function and pass that variable to and from your functions as required.
