Syntax Error Dynamic Constant Assignment
answer here: Why am I getting “error: expected '}'” in C++ but not in C? 3 answers I have the following code in a header file: enum {false,true}; and I have my main function in main.c. if I change the extention to main.cpp I get the following error: Error C2059: syntax error 'constant' Im using visual c++, any Idea why`? c++ c visual-c++ visual-studio-2012 share|improve this question asked Sep 4 '13 at 12:46

If those answers do not fully address your question, please ask a new question. 3 You've found one of the reasons why C++ cannot be made 100% backwards compatible with C. –Gorpik Sep 4 '13 at 12:52 add a comment| 2 Answers 2 active oldest votes up vote 11 down vote accepted true and false are keywords representing constant values in C++. You cannot use them to name things such as enum values. As an example, the following would compile enum { false_, true_ }; int main() {} share|improve this answer answered Sep 4 '13 at 12:48 juanchopanza 163k15213335 It is also true for other constants (enumeration for instance) that are already defined elsewhere (I encountered a problem when I have defined an enumeration value named NO_ERROR which is already defined defined in winerror.h). –Guy Avraham Sep 13 at 12:18 add a comment| up vote 1 down vote false and true are reserve words in C++. You can't redefine it as variable. share|improve this answer answered Sep 4 '13 at 12:53 haccks 67.9k1788162 add a comment| Not the an

The issue I'm having is that I don't understand the compiler error. I don't think I can post the exact code, so here's a sanitized version of it... Error is reported for the line declaring the static const DELETE. Note: The compiler error doesn't show up when this file is compiled - it http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10518424/error-c2059-syntax-error-constant builds into a library successfully, but shows up in a second project that includes the header (indirectly). I believe there are at least one or two other projects that include it indirectly in the solution - they have no issues compiling. File_A.h: enum LONG_TYPE_NAME { ENUM_NAME_PREFIX_ADD = 0, ENUM_NAME_PREFIX_CHANGE = 1, ENUM_NAME_PREFIX_DELETE = 2, ENUM_NAME_PREFIX_SOMETHINGELSE = 3, }; //Lots of code here class FOO : public ::LIBRARY_NAME { public: //Some stuff private: //Some stuff public: //Some more stuff typedef LONG_TYPE_NAME SHORT_NAME; static const SHORT_NAME ADD = ENUM_NAME_PREFIX_ADD; static const SHORT_NAME CHANGE = ENUM_NAME_PREFIX_CHANGE; /* compiler error for the following line only*/ static const SHORT_NAME DELETE = ENUM_NAME_PREFIX_DELETE; static const SHORT_NAME SOMETHINGELSE = ENUM_NAME_PREFIX_SOMETHINGELSE; //More stuff }; The constant itself only shows up in one place (when I search through the project for the term DELETE): File_A.cc: #ifndef _MSC_VER const LONG_TYPE_NAME FOO::ADD; const LONG_TYPE_NAME FOO::CHANGE; const LONG_TYPE_NAME FOO::DELETE; //More stuff #endif // _MSC_VER The error reported is error C2059: syntax error : 'constant' (followed by error C2258: illegal pure syntax, must be '= 0' and error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int which I assume are not relevant), but not when the files above are being compiled. The files are compiled to a library whi
