VAx 1819, Visual C++ 6.0

This code is in a .cpp file, and I have another C file in this project that declares a global variable showerrors.

extern "C" extern int showerrors;

bool Ini_class::InterpretEdition(void)
{
showerrors = 0;


Click the mouse on showerrors, and the navbar shows "extern extern int showerrors". I don't expect it to find the other C file that hosts the variable but I don't expect this.

And why the C++ committee chose "extern" rather than "namespace" for referring to identifiers from C code, I'll never know. Thanks for checking it out.

case=42825 was a dupe of case=1131

case=1131 is fixed in build 1836
