Ethernet Device Driver

Hello,

I am working with a nios development board with a stratixII_2s60.

I am trying to write my own ethernet device driver for an Ethernet MAC called "rtmac" that was build at my institute. Following the advise in the nios II software developer's handbook I startet out with the device driver for the lan91c111 called "altera_avalon_lan91c111" and changed it according to my needs.

When altera_avalon_rtmac.h is compiled I get the error:

error: `name' undeclared here (not in a function)[/cygdrive/z/Altera_examples/vhdl/niosII_stratixII_2s60_ES/testsys/rtmac/UCOSII/inc/altera_avalon_rtmac.h] web_server_6 line 102 12.

Does anyone have an idea why this error occurs? http://forum.niosforum.com/work2/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif

I would be very happy for any answer!

Here is my code for the altera_avalon_rtmac.h:
