AVR-Chat

Simple C question.. I guess that I am blowing!  Maybe I didn't get enough sleep last night....


Using AVR Studio 4.0 with GCC

1. I create a type that is a struct
2. I create multiple 'instances' of this type.


I get the following errors when I Build All:

menu.c:1729: error: expected declaration specifiers or '...' before 'offTimeStruct'
menu.c:1742: error: 'eventOff' undeclared (first use in this function)




typedef struct offTimeStruct
{
	uint8_t endMinute;
	uint8_t endHour;
};

offTimeStruct light1;
offTimeStruct rocket;



//menu.c: Line 1729
void CalculateOffTime(uint8_t duration, offTimeStruct &eventOff)
{
        //menu.c: Line 1742
	eventOff.endMinute = 1;

}




funtion call from Main()


CalculateOffTime(1, light1);

Thanks for your ideas guys!
