Really Odd Windows Form C++ Error

Question

So I am writing a Windows Form App, and so when I run it it throws an error that it should not be throwing. It throws a "Syntax Error :Missing ; Before using"

I tried putting one on the previous line and it did not work.

The File In Question is this

// Rock Paper Scisors.cpp : main project file.

#include "stdafx.h"
#include "Form1.h"

using namespace RockPaperScisors;

[STAThreadAttribute]
int main(array<System::String ^> ^args)
{
    // Enabling Windows XP visual effects before any controls are created
    Application::EnableVisualStyles();
    Application::SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false); 

    // Create the main window and run it
    Application::Run(gcnew Form1());
    return 0;
}}

stdafx.h is part of MS Visual C++ Express, anyway, The code for Form1.h can be found at this pastebin (didn't want to flood up the entire stack overflow page.) http://pastebin.com/324mpCps

All Help is Appreciated!

Answer 1

You just confused with the brackets.

Firstly, remove the last '}' in Rock Paper Scisors.cpp file. Secodnly, this is how the correct Form1.h file should look:

#include<time.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
#include<stdio.h>
#include<ctime>
#include<cstdlib>

#pragma once

namespace RockPaperScisors {

I've only added one bracket near the end,closing the last method in class. Since Visual Studio 2010 and earlier don't support the IntelliSense in C++/CLI, bugs are likely to occur in such projects.
