c - Fgets compilation error -

i'm stuck seems beginner's compilation error:

my simple program:

#include <stdlib.h> #include <stdio.h> #include "tiles_circular_linked_list.h"  #define max_line_length 128;  int main(int argc, char **argv) {     struct node *head_tail;     file *file;     /*char filename[] = "/home/student/desktop/studies/c/testing_fodder/tiles";*/      argv++; /*go second character-array argument*/      file = fopen(*argv, "r");     char *curr_line;      fgets(curr_line, max_line_length, file);      return 0; } 

i try compile using command:

gcc -g -wall -ansi launch_tiles.c -o tiles_prog

and these errors:

launch_tiles.c: in function ‘main’:

launch_tiles.c:17:19: error: expected ‘)’ before ‘;’ token

launch_tiles.c:17:19: error: few arguments function ‘fgets’ /usr/include/stdio.h:628:14: note: declared here

launch_tiles.c:9:8: warning: variable ‘file’ set not used [-wunused-but-set-variable]

launch_tiles.c:8:15: warning: unused variable ‘head_tail’ [-wunused-variable]

i interested errors, not warnings.

i can count 3 arguments pass fgets , don't understand miss parentheses what's problem?

thanks!

change

#define max_line_length 128; 

to

#define max_line_length 128 

(without ;). easy mistake make.

the c preprocessor simple, textual substitution, wrongly-defined macro, end with

fgets(curr_line, 128;, file); 

which syntax error.
