Andrew,
I was able to define a similar structure:
typedef struct
{
UInt8 a;
UInt8 b;
UInt8 c;
UInt8 d;
} InetAddress;
I declared a static instance of this in a source file, all without trouble.
I used UInt8's because I am working with 3.5. As far as I can tell there is
nothing in the 3.5 headers to cause a problem. What version are you working
with?
Are you sure that it is the definition of the structure that's causing you
problems? Perhaps you are duplicating a function or variable name?
Greg
