accessing elements of header file in other windows
-
Hi,
That's rather a C++ question. Why do you want to do it like that ? Global variables like that should rather be avoided as much as possible.

Ignoring the question of whether it is good design or not, I would have expected the line you show in your "main window" file should readint Nodecount = 8;. Make sure that does not change the error? If not: it would be an error to meet such a line more than once in a file, are you sure you do not have another line in your main window file which defines the variable?Also, in your main source file: are you including the "random" header file before the line where you try to define the variable?
It's also best when you have a compile error to show the actual error message together with the actual line of source the error message mentions.

It has no effect on what is in the header file one way or the other. It is indeed defining & setting the initial value of the variable declared in the header file. You can indeed access that variable from any other file where you include that header file.
