Hello, I have a simple application that does not compile because of this
function:
print_result(a, x, power_for(a, x));

which cause the following error:
app.cc(23) Error: Implicit declaration of function 'int power_for(...)'

Here is part of the code:
int main() {
    int x;
    double a;

    get_input(a, x);
    print_result(a, x, power_for(a, x));
......

The function does return a double [ double power_for(double a, int x){  ]
of course, the function power_for(a, x) is define in another file

Is there a way to deal with that kind of problem?  Please note that it
compiles without any error with Borland 5.02.

Thank you
Daniel
