Without the lines that are resulting in those errors we're really not likely to be any more help than a Google search for that error message would be.

I got this as well. I had to move around those files from tables to merc, and delete a couple merc files I believe.

gcc 4.x tightened up some C rules. The following used to work...

extern  const struct  my_type my_array[];
 
struct my_type
{
    char * a;
    int b;
};

You now need to make sure the type is visible before using it in an array declaration like so...

struct my_type
{
    char * a;
    int b;
};

extern  const struct  my_type my_array[];

Thanks that worked great. Except I had to take the declaration of type_flag from tables.c and mix it in with the type_bit in merc.h. Besides that it went great. Thanks again
