copyover7 on a swrip codebase

After following the directions I ended up with these errors. I didnt add the copyover.c file instead i put the functions but not the declarations into comm.c at the bottom. I'm not quite sure what to do with this kind of error, never seen it before. Please help.

Make sure you declare that function in the main header file, which should be mud.h

I did define "void copyover_recover args((void));" and "DECLARE_DO_FUN(do_copyover);" in mud.h, I went over the instructions again and the same error came up. I dont understand why this is happening as far as I can tell this should work.

Make sure you did a make clean. Also, will you post the lines you added in tables.c here?

I did a make clean and the errors still remain, I tried again before posting as well. In tables.c I added these two lines.
"if(!str_cmp(name, "do_copyover")) return do_copyover;"
"if(skill == do_copyover) return "do_copyover";"
I put them both after the do_consider lines.

From what I can tell, what has been suggested should work. All you need is the function declared, the function in tables.c, and the DECLARE_DO_FUN in mud.h

Make sure you updated mud.h on the server. Make clean, make sure tables.o no longer exists, and recompile...

Not much more we can suggest :)

Maybe you should try installing it exactly as stated in the instructions, rather than moving the functions around as you did. You might have missed a step somewhere and not noticed, or perhaps something is implicit in the instructions that you have and you aren't even aware that you've changed something you shouldn't?

Just a suggestion.
