Hello,

i get an error when trying to compile C++ source file where some headers are included. The error as written is expected identifier before 'enum'. The message in status bar says the problem is in a header file where the bellowed code is placed. Any solution?

enum BIRD_ERROR_CODES   // the message points this line 
{
	BIRD_ERROR_MAXIMUM_VALUE				
};


tnx

This can sometimes mean that there is something wrong with the code preceding this point in the file. Your "enum" looks fine, I would check the line of code right above it for any mistakes.

that's the beginning of the header.

You're missing the semi-colon on line 21.

It is because the name of the namespace coinsides with the manifest constant

#ifndef ATC3DGm_H // JPB bumper to prevent multiple-inclusion
#define ATC3DGm_H
using namespace ATC3DGm_H;

The preprocessor substitutes it for blank and you get using namespace;

tnx, what about this?

Compiling...
Sample.cpp
Linking...
Sample.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "__declspec(dllimport) int __cdecl ...
Debug/Sample.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 7 unresolved externals
Error executing link.exe.

Sample.exe - 8 error(s), 0 warning(s

Is there maybe a problem with linking libraries?

It means that the compiler can not fiind the definitions ot these names. Either not all modules or not all libraries were included in the project.

I didn't use the right compiler - had to change from GNU GCC Compiler to Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit 2003. I followed these instruction: http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=Integrating_Microsoft_Visual_Toolkit_2003_with_Code::Blocks_IDE

tnx for help
