C++ error: Local function definitions are illegal?

What does this mean? When is a something "local"? Why can't you define a local function?

C++ error: Local function definitions are illegal?
obviously the above answer is absolutely right !!!





this mean that you have something(a variable or a valid identifier) defined inside the scope of a function definition...





for instance,





int myfunction()


{


int a=10 ;


return a;


}





clearly in the above code a is a local identifier(in particular


a local variable) , though this is trivial , absolutely thats right!!








Why can't you define a local function?


the answer is i deem that c++ doesnt allow that.





try searching your program for paranthesis , and correct paranthesis..





you might have defined a function inside other function's scope...





remove that insideous function segment and paste it outside separately !!!





yo'l be done.
Reply:My guess would be that you are trying to define a function inside the scope of another function.
