I know that POSIX reserves the _t suffix for type names, but I haven't been able to find the actual requirement in the POSIX standard. It would depend on the exact wording. In "struct foo_t", "foo_t is not a type name, but "struct foo_t" is. I wouldn't use a "_t" suffix on a struct tag. The required "struct" keyword is enough to indicate that it's a type. -- Keith Thompson (The_Other_Keith) Keith.S.Thompson+u@gmail.com void Void(void) { Void(); } /* The recursive call of the void */
