I just reorganized the code for a project and now I'm getting errors I can't resolve. This header is included by a .cpp file trying to compile.
#include "WinMain.h"
#include "numDefs.h"
#include <bitset>
class Entity
{
public:
Entity();
virtual ~Entity();
virtual bitset<MAX_SPRITE_PIXELS> getBitMask();
virtual void getMapSection(float x, float y, int w, int h, bitset<MAX_SPRITE_PIXELS>* section);
};
I'm getting these compiler errors for the declaration of Entity::getBitMask():
error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '<'
error C2433: 'Entity::bitset' : 'virtual' not permitted on data declarations
error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int
error C2238: unexpected token(s) preceding ';'
There are more similar errors for the next line as well. It seems like bitset isn't getting included but it clearly is? I can't figure out what's going wrong. WinMain.h includes windows.h, and numDefs.h includes nothing.
Using MS Visual C++ 2008.
Declare the bitset as std::bitset<MAX_SPRITE_PIXELS>.
The bitset template is defined in the std:: namespace, so you either need to reference it by it's full name std::bitset or add using namespace std; somewhere before the class declaration.
I think you need to say std::bitset.
Looks like an error in "numDefs.h"

Something annoying is going on here and I hope the community can help me :). My program is working correctly when I have my class in the cpp file. When I move my class code into a header file the program throws errors. Please instruct me. Thank you!
.cpp file
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include "CSquare.h"
using namespace std;
int main()
{
CSquare alo(1,"name");
}
CSquare.h
#pragma once
class CSquare
{
private:
int squareCode;
string squareName;
public:
CSquare(int, string);
void setCode(int);
void setName(string);
};
CSquare::CSquare(int inputSquareCode, string inputSquareName)
{
setCode(inputSquareCode);
setName(inputSquareName);
}
void CSquare::setCode(int inputSquareCode)
{
squareCode = inputSquareCode;
}
void CSquare::setName(string inputSquareName)
{
squareName = inputSquareName;
}
I have also tried moving the #include string in both files but still, nothing seems to fix the problem :/

CSquare.h lacks the definition for the type string.
Solution: Perhaps you intended to use std::string. In that case you must include <string> in CSquare.h and use the scope resolution operator to refer to the string declared in the std namespace. See the first sentence of this paragraph for an example.
CSquare.h contains definitions to non-inline functions. If the header is included in more than one translation unit, then you violate the one definition rule.
In the entire program, an object or non-inline function cannot have more than one definition
Solution: Either define the functions in a single source file, or declare the functions inline.
In my c++ program i'm trying to create a dll that houses the functionality of my a* algorithm.
I encounter a problem when trying to pass the map into it, I first tried to use a 2d array, but that limited my map sizes, so i'm now trying to use a vector in a vector and I keep hitting some odd snag.
In my dlls .h file:
namespace IInterface
{
class IInterface
{
public:
// Sets the map
static __declspec(dllexport) void setMap(int h, int w,vector<vector<byte>> &myarray);
private:
static vector<vector<byte>> mymap;
}
Finaly in the .cpp i have:
#include "IInterface.h"
#include <Windows.h>
#include <stdexcept>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;
namespace IInterface
{
void IInterface::setMap(int h, int w,vector<vector<byte>> &myarray)
{
mymap = myarray;
}
}
Im getting a few errors on compilation even tho the code looks fine to me.

I looked at some samples, but there was really nothing that matched this scenario. I have a sneaking suspicion i'm forgetting something crucial, but I cant see it. Ideas on getting this to work?
your dlls.h does not include vector type - you should tell the compiler vector definition and include .
Tip: don't use using namespace std; in header file only in cpp. Instead of this use std::vector ...etc.
Secondly, be careful when your dll interface contains stl. This library differs as regards Release and Debug versions, so if you load Release dll in Debug program you could have problems.
At the top of my file main.h I have:
#include <vector>
class Blah
{
public:
Blah(){}
~Blah(){}
protected:
vector<int> someVector;
public:
//methods
};
When I try to compile, the vector declaration line gives the errors:
error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '<'
error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int
error C2238: unexpected token(s) preceding ';'
I can't figure out what's causing this. Anybody see what I'm doing wrong?
The vector class is part of the std namespace. You need to replace your declaration with std::vector<int> instead.
It's in the std namespace:
std::vector<int> someVector;
vector is part of the std namespace and so you need to add std:: to your declaration:
std::vector<int> someVector;
Since the suggestion was made in another answers, I want to also discourage the use of using namespace std since it is considered bad practice
Instead of using,
std::vector someVector;
Always try to use,
using namespace std;
Because it will help you not to type 'std::' again and again, and it is not considered a good practice.
I need to refactor a .dll for a Zinc based Flash application.
After copy&paste a class from the master to the branch, I'm getting some strange compiling errors:
GameInfo.h(15): error C2146: syntax error : missing ';' before identifier 'm_wsVersion'
GameInfo.h(15): error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int
GameInfo.h(15): error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int
The addressed code:
// removed the comments
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <string.h>
class GameInfo {
public:
UINT m_uiGameId;
wstring m_wsVersion; // Line 15
UINT m_uiCheckSum;
wstring m_wsFilePath; // Same error report as on line 15
public:
static BOOL createFromFile(wstring path, GameInfo &target); // error "error C2061: syntax error : identifier 'wstring'" thrown
};
I use Visual Studio 2010 and in the IDE itself everything is okay, no syntactical errors or something like that. And as said I did not touch the code, headers seem fine.
Has anyone a clue what about this error?
Try using the string header, and qualifying the namespace:
#include <string>
class GameInfo {
....
std::wstring m_wsVersion;
};
#include <string> is the right standard include in C++ for string classes and use std::wstring.
I strongly recommend AGAINST using a using namespace std; inside one of your headers, as you would force anybody using the header to pull in the std stuff into the global namespace.
I am working on a college project, where I have to implement a simple Scrabble game.
I have a player class (containing a Score and the player's hand, in the form of a std::string, and a score class (containing a name and numeric (int) score).
One of Player's member-functions is Score getScore(), which returns a Score object for that player. However, I get the following error on compile time:
player.h(27) : error C2146: syntax error : missing ';' before identifier 'getScore'
player.h(27) : error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int
player.h(27) : error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int
player.h(27) : warning C4183: 'getScore': missing return type; assumed to be a member function returning 'int'
player.h(35) : error C2146: syntax error : missing ';' before identifier '_score'
player.h(35) : error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int
player.h(35) : error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int
Here's lines 27 and 35, respectively:
Score getScore(); //defined as public
(...)
Score _score; //defined as private
I get that the compiler is having trouble recognizing Score as a valid type... But why? I have correctly included Score.h at the beginning of player.h:
#include "Score.h"
#include "Deck.h"
#include <string>
I have a default constructor for Score defined in Score.h:
Score(); //score.h
//score.cpp
Score::Score()
{
_name = "";
_points = 0;
}
Any input would be appreciated!
Thanks for your time,
Francisco

As requested, score.h and player.h:

You've got a circular inclusion problem - relatively easy to fix in this case.
Remove the #include "Player.h" from Score.h.
See this question for an explanation and discussion of what you'd need to do if Score actually used Player.
As for the compiler errors you're getting, that's how Microsoft's compiler reports the use of undefined types -you should learn to mentally translate them all into "Type used in declaration not defined".
Your problem is the recursive include: Score.h is trying to include Player.h, and Player.h is trying to include Score.h. Since the Score class doesn't seem to actually be using the Player class, removing #include "Player.h" from Score.h should solve your problem.
You have a circular dependency problem : Score.h includes Player.h and Player.h includes Score.h.
Do solve this problem, delete your include to Player.h in Score.h and define class Player; if you need to use it in Score class.
