How can I fix missing ';' before '*' error in my program? - c++

Question

I tried to make MyWindowSplitter class and I made the other new class derived from CView class as runtime class in MySplitter class. But when I tried to compile that I got these errors in MyProjectView.h in GetDocument function:
Error 1
error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '*'
Error 2
error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int
Where is the problem and How can I fix them?

Answer 1

You need a forward declaration for your CDocument-derived class:
// Attributes
public:
//ERROR PERFORMS IN THIS FUNCTION:
class CSplitDemoSixDoc;
CSplitDemoSixDoc* GetDocument();
