Check your literal strings too " ... "; if you forget the closing double quote the
compiler expects more text while the end of your file has been reached. Also
check your parentheses etc. Most of the time the curly brackets are the
guilty ones.

If you are using Visual Studio, each file must end with a line consisting of just the enter key.

Edit each nof your files and be sure there is an empty line at the end. This will be easy to see by going to the end of the file and looking at the cursor. If it's not in col 1 of a new line, then press enter.

I have to say that I have never noticed that with visual studio. However it is part of the C and C++ standards that every line containing code must end with a newline, and I have come across a few compilers that check for this (Visual Studio not being one of them up to now), this causes a problem if for instance you don't put a newline after the closing brace of the last function in the file (something that is not visually obvious in most editors).


Another cause of you problem could be poorly positioned /closed comments. Although less likely in these days of chroma coded editors where commented out code is normally obvious if you accidentally managed to comment out a closing brace this would have the same effect as leaving it out.

It is of course possible to achieve the same effect with preprocessor directives (#if etc) instead of comments.
