#187485 - const strings in C |
Hello,
Probably i'm on wrong way, so let me ask. I want to define in one file many strings/messages as: const char msg1="hello"; ..... const char msg255="good bye!"; I need these to be in one file for easy changing, code-table pre-recoding , language changing... Problem is how to declare these in many modules. /* For varables i use DATADECLARE.H file as follow: MYDEF char variable1; In one DATADEFINE.C file i have #define MYDEF extern #include "DATADECLARE.H" In other modules - #define MYDEF ' ' #include "DATADECLARE.H" */ I tryed MYDEF const char msg1 MYDEF2 "hello1"; but stoped unsuccessfully on defining MYDEF2. What is right approach to do this with constant strings? regards |
