Thread Rules
1. This is not a "do my homework for me" thread. If you have specific questions, ask, but don't post an assignment or homework problem and expect an exact solution.
2. No recruiting for your cockamamie projects (you won't replace facebook with 3 dudes you found on the internet and $20)
3. If you can't articulate why a language is bad, don't start slinging shit about it. Just remember that nothing is worse than making CSS IE6 compatible.
4. Use [code] tags to format code blocks.

Uhm... I might be totally blind because I already code for a long time now, but whats wrong with this:


#pragma once
#include "Printer.h"
#include "Color.h"
#include "Printjob.h"
#include <String>
#include <vector>
#include <iostream>
#include <ctime>
#include <chrono>
#include <thread>
class Panel
{
private:
       someatributes


	Printer* printer;
        Color* color; //<- line which screws me
};

Visual Studio keeps telling me that in the marked line there is no type specified and no ";" in front of the "*" and I cant figure out why... What is the obvious thing I miss here? I suggest the error lies somewhere else and the message is just misleading, but I don't know where since the color.cpp/.h only contains trivial code. If I leave the line out, everything builds fine.

Shouldn't class end with ";" ? I mean

class Panel
{
...
}; // <- here

Never mind thought you were asking a genuine question.

I just failed to copy that since there is quite some code in between. Fixed it in my example.

Can you use Color* anywhere else? Maybe the error is somewhere in color.h.

Well... if I swap them around I can use Panel* but no longer Color* ^^... time to crawl through the whole code.

What about

 #include <String>

.
Try changing to lower case <string>.

EDIT:
Never mind, I forgot this is visual which I know nothing about, I'm using g++...

No luck. Changed it anyway though. To much java lately.

Kind of found the error. I had #include "Panel.h" in color.h and printer.h, without it it runs fine HOWEVER, I need Color and Printer to know Panel as well and shouldn’t pragma once fix such problems? Gonne try it with #ifndef

EDIT: Nope, the errors get even weirder lol

You don't really need to include anything here if you're just using pointers. Just use forward declaration for Printer and Color and include the headers in you cpp. Maybe that actually fixes your issues too.

#pragma once seems to work fine for me.

#pragma once

Why are you using raw pointers anyway?

Given that none of the suggestions so far worked, I'm going to suggest there is something in someatributes that is wrong. For starters, its spelling

Other than that, my main expectation is that there's something wrong in printer, rather than color. Did you try switching those two statements?

Note that the last time I coded c++ is a while back, but it doesn't look like the error is in the code you posted.

you really need to post all the code for the Color class because that's probably where the error is given that it doesn't understand that the class exists

did you add Color.cpp to your makefile?

At the time I was working on windows.

Thanks for all the help, the problem remains a mystery... My last solution was to transfer the whole project to my laptop where everything build fine while still giving the same error on my desktop. Now after getting up, I tried my desktop again because I was to tired to remember having switched to my laptop AND EVERYTHING WOKRS?! The original project before the transfer as well as the only slightly modified version from my laptop.
Either it was too close to midnight or I am starting to lose my mind. It just doesn’t make sense and now I am really pissed off, having lost multiple hours on an apparently non-existent issue.

You're officially a programmer now.

haha, yeah. That the error is seemingly gone without reason is almost worse now lol.... I have a really hard time accepting that the compiler just had flatulence. There HAS to be a reason!

You should really reconsider your way of using #includes. The way it looks every header includes every header. That's not how it should be done at all. Even if you use #pragma once.

Could be that you forgot to call "make clean". I know that has cost me headaches worth of debugging...

But yes, I think every programmer worth his salt has spent hours being frustrated at a problem, deep into the night. And the next morning it turns out that the problem was completely trivial to solve, and you do it in 2 lines of code and 3 minutes. Feeling both victorious and relieved, as well as incredibly frustrated at the same time.
