I was converting the alias code found at alsherok by Samson for my SWR codebase, and after I installed I got these errors:

mud.h:3481: parse error before `*'
mud.h:3481: warning: type defaults to `int' in declaration of `fpReserve'
mud.h:3481: warning: data definition has no type or storage class
mud.h:3482: parse error before `*'
mud.h:3482: warning: type defaults to `int' in declaration of `fpLOG'
mud.h:3482: warning: data definition has no type or storage class
mud.h:4494: parse error before `*'
mud.h:4495: parse error before `*'
mud.h:4496: parse error before `*'
mud.h:4497: parse error before `*'
mud.h:4498: parse error before `*'
mud.h:4499: parse error before `*'
mud.h:4500: parse error before `*'
mud.h:4837: parse error before `FILE'
mud.h:4839: parse error before `FILE'
alias.c: In function `do_alias':
alias.c:99: warning: implicit declaration of function `perror'
alias.c:99: warning: implicit declaration of function `fprintf'
alias.c:99: `stderr' undeclared (first use in this function)
alias.c:99: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
alias.c:99: for each function it appears in.)
alias.c: In function `check_alias':
alias.c:143: warning: implicit declaration of function `sprintf'

Now, to what I've been looking at, it appears every error is somehow linkned to FILE in mud.h. However, I didn't mess with anything of that nature at all. Just after I installed this code did this pop up, so something must not be right since the parse errors didn't show up before. I know without the code you can't help all to much, but do you think you could point me in the right direction?

What is in mud.h at line 3481? Sounds like you have corrupted it somehow, or maybe omitted the includes necessary for FILE.

4837:void fwrite_obj args( ( CHAR_DATA *ch, OBJ_DATA *obj, FILE *fp,
4838: int iNest, sh_int os_type ) );
4839:void fread_obj args( ( CHAR_DATA *ch, FILE *fp, sh_int os_type ) );

Don't know whats wrong with it, it all looks alright to me, it has only messed up since I tried adding the aliases.

Did the code you added have a #define FILE <something> ?

Nope. Anything else you can think of that would cause it?

What #include's does alias.c have? FILE is defined in stdio.h, make sure alias.c includes that.
