unexpected class??
Author
Hello
If I try to compile my program (with visual c++ 6)I get the following errors serveral times:
error C2236: unexpected ''class''
error C2143: syntax error : missing '';'' before ''PCH creation point''
I can''t find any error in my source related to this..
looks like two things:
- you''re defining the files to use pre-compiled headers, but your pre-compiled header is not the first #include in the file.
- you might be calling your files something.c, which makes MSVC compile them as C files, not as C++ files. Rename them something.cpp.
- you''re defining the files to use pre-compiled headers, but your pre-compiled header is not the first #include in the file.
- you might be calling your files something.c, which makes MSVC compile them as C files, not as C++ files. Rename them something.cpp.
sounds like your trying to define a class before including the PreCompiled Header
ie make sure that the first line of code in all your cpp files is
#include "StdAfx.h"
that should do the trick!!

I got this exact message a couple days ago, and it turned out to be caused by a missing semi-colon, of all things. I know VC++ has a habit of issuing error messages that aren''t related to the actual error, so it may just be me...
''Nuff said. I''ll enjoy watching you live, demon.

Mayrel: that''s a good point. The parser separates statements by braces, semicolons or other syntax-dependent separators. Therefore, it''s always a good idea to handle errors from the top of the file - they often clear up errors further down.
Sorry to revive an old thread, but this problem has been bugging me lately, and I hope some more light can be shed upon it. I get the same "unexpected class" error, but this time it''s in the header, not the source. I have no errors before this one, and for some reason, even when I only include the h file once (with multiple inclusion guards), it still gives me "unexpected class"
Erm.. what if I don''t have any "StdAfx.h" file?
Anyway, what on earth could the problem be? I declare my class like this:
class CRenderer
{
stuff
};
so what is so Unexpected about it?
Anye help would be appreciated,
