What does this error mean: “error: expected specifier-qualifier-list before 'type_name'”?

Question

I\'ve been working on the Cell processor and I\'m trying to create a struct that will hold an spe_context_ptr_t, which will be used within the thread to launch

Answer 1

The compiler doesn't know that spe_context_ptr_t is a type. Check that the appropriate typedef is in scope when this code is compiled. You may have forgotten to include the appropriate header file.
