[Solved]Cannot define structure at the same time

Peppy

Hi, I have this structure in globals.h:
@
struct Configuration
{
public:
void setServerIp(QHostAddress ip) { ServerIp = ip; }
void setGameBackground(QString bg) { BackgroundImage = bg; }
void setStickColor(QColor clr) { StickColor = clr; }
void setUsername(QString user) { Username = user; }

   QHostAddress getServerIp(void) { return ServerIp; }
   QString getGameBackground(void) { return BackgroundImage; }
   QColor getStickColor(void) { return StickColor; }
   QString getUserName(void) { return Username; }

private:
QHostAddress ServerIp;
QString BackgroundImage;
QColor StickColor;
QString Username;
};
@

I can't write in my globals.h file this:
@
struct Configuration
{ ... } *Settings;
@

Compilator writes something like "it already has been declared in ..." and opens my editor (Qt Creator) in qatomic_i386.h at function
@inline bool QBasicAtomicInt::ref() { @

But If I define Configuration* Settings in main.cpp (as a global var), it works, I would like to know where is the problem?

I am including globals.h in every header file cause globals.h including Qt headers...

Can you post your complete globals.h file, please.

} *Settings; // <== this line makes problems
#endif // GLOBALS_H

That's all, but this doesn't work...
