Error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int?

I am compiling in Visual Studio 2005


Are any changes required around extern "C" for it to compile in VS 2005?


I am making a simple Windows Console application


Project type: DLL


Started with Empty project





Header File Code:


**********************


ifndef _DLL_TUTORIAL_H_


#define _DLL_TUTORIAL_H_


#include %26lt;iostream%26gt;





#if defined DLL_EXPORT


#define DECLDIR __declspec(dllexport)


#else


#define DECLDIR __declspec(dllimport)


#endif





extern "C"


{


DECLDIR int Add( int a, int b );


DECLDIR void Function( void );


}





CPP File Code


******************


#include %26lt;iostream%26gt;


#include "DLL_Tutorial.h"


#define DLL_EXPORT





extern "C"


{


DECLDIR int Add( int a, int b )


{


return( a + b );


}





DECLDIR void Function( void )


{


std::cout %26lt;%26lt; "DLL Called!" %26lt;%26lt; std::endl;


}


}

Error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int?
#include "DLL_Tutorial.h"


#define DLL_EXPORT





Is that order intended? I notice that your DLL_Tutorial.h is looking for DLL_EXPORT to be defined, but it won't be set yet at the point where it's included .





May or may not be the root of your problem -- did your error come with a line #? What line does it map to in the file?
