C++ error : Expected an identifier

Question

i am trying to make an header but it gives me error :

#ifndef __OFFSETS__H_
#define __OFFSETS__H_

typedef unsigned long MAIN = 0x22EA120;//0x022BF0C0 ;
typedef unsigned long RECOILVT = 0x020A3ACC;//0x020FA644;
typedef unsigned long DEVIATIONVT = 0x020A3AC8;//0x020FA640;

#define OFFSET_CSW_GETHEAT          0x00000000 // Function - BF3_X_BASE = IDA 
#endif

the error is

error C2513: 'unsigned long' : no variable declared before '='

and i don't know why ? any idea ?

Answer 1

These lines are incorrect

typedef unsigned long MAIN = 0x22EA120;//0x022BF0C0 ;
typedef unsigned long RECOILVT = 0x020A3ACC;//0x020FA644;
typedef unsigned long DEVIATIONVT = 0x020A3AC8;//0x020FA640;

You are defining a type. You cannot give a type a value.

Do one or the other!

EDIT

Either

a)

typedef unsigned long MAIN;
typedef unsigned long RECOILVT;
typedef unsigned long DEVIATIONVT;

or

b)

#define MAIN 0x22EA120
#define RECOILVT 0x020A3ACC
#define DEVIATIONVT 0x020A3AC8

or

c)

const int MAIN = 0x22EA120;//0x022BF0C0 ;
const int RECOILVT = 0x020A3ACC;//0x020FA644;
const int DEVIATIONVT = 0x020A3AC8;//0x020FA640;

Your choice

Answer 2

I think you mean typedef unsigned long MAIN = 0x22EA120; to be const unsigned long MAIN = 0x22EA120;//0x022BF0C0 ; perhaps?
