Apologies if this has been spoken about before, I did search for it and scan the Wiki but didn't come up with anything.

I am trying to use a slot_type.enum.h (located in Data/Enum folder) header I have created in another header file called Inventory.h (located in Shared folder) but when I try to include it it just churns out loads of redefinition errors.

Now in the Main.h header I have the following and I have added my custom enum.h in the _enums.h file but I still get the errors:


What am I missing?

Errors as follows (this is just a sample of them as it generates them for each header in the code unit it is compiling):


All I attempted to do was add #include "../data/enum/slot_type.enum.h" to my Shared/Inventory.h code resulting in the above.

Might help if we knew what the errors were :/

Errors listed for you now

It's because multiple files are including either inventory.h or main.h which includes inventory.h and inventory.h includes _enums.h which makes it be redefined for every file, add _enums.h to stdafx.h or main.h where inventory.cpp will include main.h.

Ahh stdafx.h of course! The one header file I didn't think of placing it in.

Thanks Zervox.
