error c2011 when creating multiple classes

I've searched the forum for a similar error with no success. Here's the code:

this is the main class "test.cpp."

using namespace std;


int main(){

        class1 test;
        int x,y;

        cin >> x;

        cin >> y;
        test.setSomething(x,y);
        test.printSomething();

    return 0;

}

            void class1::printSomething(){

                cout << "the sum is: " << (x+y) << " .\n";

            }

};


I receive error c2011, the full error below. There are other errors as well.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much! However, I receive the errors:

One error in specific I'm curious about is the error LNK2019.

#include <iostream>; // Khm-khm
On my VS2008 it compiles and works. Try to remake the project (delete project and make new).
Patrick Burton (7)
I created a brand new project in VS2008 with the same code as above (adding #include <iostream>;) and receive the same C2011 error. Here's the error according to VS2008

I meant: don't write ';' after #include <iostream>.
Try this:

int main(){

        cin >> y;
        test.setSomething(x,y);
        test.printSomething();

    return 0;

Still receiving the same error, c2011.

I recompiled this code (from my last post) and all successed. I don't know, why you have problems.
Patrick Burton (7)
Found the problem, just a minor typo. Worked when I copied and pasted everything exactly as it was. Thanks so much!!
