Question

Hi guys this is my 3rd post in this regard please help.I have 2 files :-arcball.cpp and sample.cpp under source and then arcball.h under header files in a VS 2008 project.Now initial code in sample.cpp was giving me errors so I removed everything and this is the body of sample.cpp :-

int main (){

return 0;
}

I am surprised it still gives me those same errors.

Error   1   error C2144: syntax error : 'void' should be preceded by ';'    c:\program files\microsoft sdks\windows\v6.0a\include\gl\gl.h   1152    Viewer
Error   2   error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int   c:\program files\microsoft sdks\windows\v6.0a\include\gl\gl.h   1152    Viewer

Please please help me.

Sound’s to me like you’ve accidently added some your of .h files to the list of compilation units, instead of just source dependencies.
