__declspec(dllexport) ClassName *c; placed in the header getting me a lot of error messages

__declspec(dllexport) ClassName *c;

placed in the header getting me a lot of error messages (up to 10), such as:

  • syntax error : missing ‘;’ before ‘*’
  • missing type specifier – int assumed

not only in that header, but also around static functions in ClassName implementation, while doing

__declspec(dllexport) int *c;

compiles fine.

What’s going on?

    You should mark it as extern. Also, make sure the definition of ClassName is visible.
