Yesterday I started working on my iPhone project again. I’m building a game with Cocos2D/Box2d. But when I tried to build the project I got thousands of errors. I couldn’t find out what was wrong.
So I created a new project from a Cocos2D template and added only my custom code. Again full of errors when I tried to build for the first time.
The next thing I did was creating a clean new project. Building that gave no problems. So after compiling it one time, I added my custom code and my game was working again! No errors.
I worked on the project for hours without any problems, but due to some changes I made, I needed to Empty the Caches en Clean targets. And after that.. Yes, again thousands of errors.
The code/classes I added did not overwrite any of the libraries, It are just custom classes.
Anyone who can point me in the right direction? I have no clue what’s causing the problem.

Edit:
There are more than 40.000 errors. Below are some of the errors. They all seem to begin with “expecting”.

And the list goes on…
When you ask a question, please, if you want to see the answer, provide us version of the cocos2d and also what compiler version do you use… and so on.
Hm, however I think I know what’s the problem. You’re probably just forget to change the extension of your newly created custom class from “.m” to “.mm”.
