将对象声明为extern

Question

我试图将一个对象声明为extern，因为我希望一个线程能够从一个不同的文件访问和更新它。但是，当我试图编译代码时，会收到以下错误消息：

In file included from main.cpp:1:
dialog.h:43:6: error: storage class specified for ‘temperatureValue’
   43 |      extern QLabel *temperatureValue;
      |      ^~~~~~
dialog.h:44:6: error: storage class specified for ‘humidityValue’
   44 |      extern QLabel *humidityValue;
      |      ^~~~~~
dialog.h:45:6: error: storage class specified for ‘CO2Value’
   45 |      extern QLabel *CO2Value;
      |      ^~~~~~
dialog.h:46:6: error: storage class specified for ‘lightingValue’
   46 |      extern QLabel *lightingValue;
      |      ^~~~~~
dialog.h:47:6: error: storage class specified for ‘letterGrade’
   47 |      extern QLabel *letterGrade;

这里是我声明我的extern对象的头文件。为什么我会得到这个错误，我应该如何声明对象，这样我才能在全球范围内使用它们？

#endif // DIALOG_H

如果我们可以这样做，对于类类型的实例，编译器不知道链接时解析哪个地址。你可以这样做：

//A.h
#ifndef _A_H_
#define _A_H_
struct A{
    int value;
    
};
extern A a;
#endif

//A.cpp
#include "A.h"
A a;

//main.cpp
#include <iostream>

#include "A.h"
int main() {

std::cout<<a.value<<std::endl;   
}

在您的代码中，extern Dialog的意图而不是其成员。
