16 years agoerrors of using bool type in program
when i tried to define a bool type data or use bool type as my function's parameter,there is many error messages displayed in the concole.
like this: ../hello_world.c:23: error: `bool' undeclared (first use in this function) ../hello_world.c:23: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once ../hello_world.c:23: error: for each function it appears in.) ../hello_world.c:23: error: syntax error before "b" i figured that the compiler recognised bool as a valid data type since it is highlighted the same as other types. How to fix that? ps:i only include <stdio.h>in my program.2 Replies

You need to include stdbool.h as well.
The editor probably has a different list of known typenames. OTOH the compiler will generate better code if you avoid 'bool'. - Altera_Forum
