Forward declaration incomplete type struct?

larry burns (46)
I am trying to compile the files below. The PosLin.cpp contains the SurTriAuto and SurTriPosRotAndQ functions below. Before adding SurTriPosRotAndQ, it compiled fine, but when I added SurTriPosRotAndQ, I am getting "invalid use of incomplete type ‘struct PosRotAndQ" error messages

I was thinking I could try moving SurTriAuto and SurTriPosRotAndQ to PosLin.h, but since they return "T*", I'm not sure what to do

I have a "t.h" file

            //other stuff
          }
        }

    class PS{
    public: 

      PosExCode cqa(Geo* geo, POpinion* opinion, PosRotAndQ* sur)

      PosRotAndQ mattersur;
   
    }


when I add "include Pos/PL.h" to geopar.h, I get an error saying v.hpp is missing, where v.hpp is part of a 3rd-party software and it is already in my directory

Make sure your testcase is self-contained and actually reproduces the problem

http://www.eelis.net/iso-c++/testcase.xhtml

extra or missing colons in your class definitions
¿no header guards?
unknown "Geo/Geo.h" header
unknown types PosExCode, POpinion

> The PosLin.cpp contains the SurTriAuto and SurTriPosRotAndQ functions below.
¿you mean the file that you didn't post?
