I found the error. It was elsewhere. Stupid mistake.

I'm getting a scope error on a really simple piece of code, and I cannot for the life of me figure out what the problem is.

Here's the error:


decision_tree.cpp: In function ‘node* create_tree(int, int**)’:
decision_tree.cpp:152: error: ‘pos_child’ was not declared in this scope


And here's the troublesome code (both segments in the same file):



typedef struct tree_node_obj {
struct tree_node_obj * neg_child;
struct tree_node_obj * pos_child;
int identifier;
} node;

...

node* tree_head = (node*) malloc(sizeof(node));

if (pos == 0 || neg == 0) {
tree_head->identifier = -1;
tree_head->pos_child = NULL;
tree_head->neg_child = NULL;
return tree_head;
}


It doesn't give any errors for identifier or neg_child. I have a feeling this is a stupid fatigue-fueled error, but I really can't figure it out.
