Error deferencing pointer to incomplete the type struct Error invalid applicaion of sizof to incomplete type of struct I am trying to compile this sds file to run the redis with the help of QT. I have used the pack macro as described in the https://stackoverflow.com/a/3312896 and it has taken care the definition and the semicolon issue as well. I am running the rdm using QT Creater and building it with the help of MINGW(\rdm\build-rdm-Desktop_Qt_5_9_9_MinGW_32bit-Release). When I am building it I am getting the error "Invalid application of sizeof to incomplete type with a struct". I will be also attaching the snapshot for the same. Need help to resolve this.
