title: expected identifier or ‘(’ before numeric constant?
body: <p>I have this header file ... for some reason I keep getting an error saying 
  <code>log_server.h:48: error: expected identifier or ‘(’ before numeric constant</code>
  I get this error on both lines defining the put_evt and print_evt_list functions, 
  here's what the code looks like:</p>

  <p>I've read that this error can be caused by having a preprocessing directive written on  more than one line ... but I don't have that. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?</p>
