Circular include best ways to avoid?

so I have file a.pbi, it contains a structure that uses something from b.pbi as a list, then I have procedures that take pointers of a in b.pbi, as well as a prototype function.

Re: confusion about memory allocation with structures and dynamic elements

interesting, thanks
