So I have a class included in another class that keeps throwing a compile error of the form "error: 'ProblemClass' has not been declared. The files are set up thusly:
#ifndef PROBLEMCLASS_H
#define PROBLEMCLASS_H
#include <iostream>
#include <cmath>
class ProblemClass
{
public:
virtual void Init() = 0;
};
#endif
and the class where the error occurs looks like this:
#ifndef ACLASS_H
#define ACLASS_H
#include "problemclass.h"
class AClass : public Base
{
public:
void DoSomething(ProblemClass* problem);
};
#endif
The compile error occurs at void Dosomething();
I'm aware the code here isn't enough to solve the problem. I've been unable to create a minimal example that can reproduce it. So my question is much more general; what sort of things might cause this? Is there anything in particular I should look for, or some line of enquiry I should be following to track it down?
This code compiles fine in an almost identical version of the project.
Help of any sort would be greatly appreciated, no matter how vague. I'm using codeblocks 10.05 with mingw4.4.1 in win 7 64 bit.
