How to use extern sbit declare?

I declare a variable unsigned char bdata Kde in a.c.

[in file a.c]

unsigned char bdata Kde;

Than I want to use the variable inb.c.
[in file b.c]
#include <stdio.h>
.....
extern unsigned char bdata Kde;
sbit testbit=Kde^1;
void main(void)
{......}

:error C141:.......a.c:syntax error near 'sbit'

why?

  • I totally agree and sympathize. However, adding a feature such as

    /* foo.c */
    bit someBitVar = otherByteVar ^ 1;
    
    /* foo.h */
    extern bit someBitVar;
    probably would not break anyone's code. Right? Don't get me wrong, I think Keil's toolchain is top-notch. Especially after being stranded on PIC Island for my last project.
