[Gambas-user] external functions and struct

[Demosthenes Koptsis]

According to gambas wiki

*If the function returns a|struct ABC *|*, then you mimic the 
structure|ABC|declaration somewhere, and you declare the return value 
as|Struct ABC|.

here the function returns a struct mallinfo.

'struct mallinfo mallinfo (void)

so i created a Struct Mallinfo
and i declare an external function As Struct Mallinfo

Public Extern mallinfo() As Struct Mallinfo
why this is wrong ?
