Re: [Dev-C++] Statement Help/explaination

[Per W. <pw...@ia...>]

It's a variable declaration, just as
    int my_integer;
Note that in C++ you can place variable declarations just about
everywhere, while a C compiler only want them at start of a block.

You must make sure that you are including the file where RASCONNSTATUS is
declared.
