Bad syntax include in Minix

I am developing a project for Minix in C Language and I have a folder to put the drivers of the devices called core. In the main.c I did an include of the vbe.h that is inside this folder and the make give me allways an error of bad syntax.

I tried two ways:

  • #include "./core/vbe.h"

  • #include "core/vbe.h"

I have always an error!

Can anyone help me?

Solution

  • Just so that the internet knows, I got this error and solved it. I believe I understand the reason as well.

    I had used an array within a file which was not initialized. When I noticed this and commented the array out, it compiled fine.

    My reasoning for the wording of the error is that it assumed I wanted to include this array, and that I forgot to include another file. So annoying.
