Hi, I am trying to learn lite-C but I had trouble compiling code pasted from the 2cnd workshop. So I did a search here and found out that I must save as a .c file. After I did that I got more errors. It said that I was missing a bracket, but I cannot find where I am missing it. Here is a screenshot, tell me if you can read it, if you cannot I'll try a different resolution of screenshot.  Thanks

The first thing I can see is that you have:
PANEL pDisplay = {}
but it has to be a pointer:
PANEL* pDisplay = {}

I just rewrote you code and it works without a problem:
#include <acknex.h>
#include <default.c>
var a = 1;
var b = 2;
var c = 0;
PANEL* pDisplay =
{
digits(35,10,"a = %0.f",*,1,a);
digits(35,19,"b = %0.f",*,1,b);
digits(35,28,"c = %0.f",*,1,c);
flags = VISIBLE;
}
function main()
{
video_mode = 6;
screen_color.blue = 150;
while(1)
{
c = a+b;
wait(1);
}
}
Other than that function is C-Script, use the datatype of the return value instead which doesn´t exist in your function main and thus "function" should be "void" in the case. But that has nothing to do with your problem...

If you you have a .c file and a .wdl file with the same name (except for the file extension) the .wdl file is compiled too. This is required in the current official release as .wdl files are still needed for giving PATH and PLUGINDIR statements. The current beta version got rid of the need to have a .wdl file for this.

Always learn from history, to be sure you make the same mistakes again...

If there is a .wdl file with the name of the .c file it will be compiled first. This was needed to set things like the plugindir. Just look at the betapage for the PRAGMA_ defines which now replace the need for a .wdl file.
Other than that you can combine C-Script and Lite-C, but that is a bit different because the function main has to be in the .wdl file and you just include the .c file as any other script. That one needs a startup function which works as function main for the lite-c part because it is not possible to share functions or variables or such between them. But that allows for example to use the new postprocessing features in a c-script project.
And I was again too late :P

OK I have reposted the original screen shot with some painted blue lines to show you that the compiler seemed to be attempting to compile two scripts at once. See how it was trying to compile the old test_1.wdl? I was not able to run the new script because the old one was interfering somehow.  I tried to retrace the it again by making new files and testing it but I could not reproduce the problem. Oh well. Thanks a lot.
