syntax error before int
 
#include <errno.h>

extern int errno

#define MaxBuffV 1024


/* The Named Pipe Linkages...*/


#define FIFO1
#define FIFO2

int Client(int rfd, int wfd); /* line in question with error */


int main()
{
return 0;
)

int Client(int rfd, int wfd)
{
return 0l;
}

when I compile program in gcc compiler
I get a message saying at top level above main


error: syntax error before "int"




why is it doing this

This is probably the cause of the message
Code:
int main()
{
return 0;
) <<--

Please embed code between [code] and [/code] to preserve formatting.

There are a few problems.

Code:
extern int errno
shouldn't be needed if you're already #include'ing errno.h
Even if it is, you need a semicolon at the end.

Code:

int main()
{
return 0;
)
The ) should be }
