XCode 4.1 / Lion: Expected declaration specifiers

[agileapplications]

Until yesterday I had no problems using FMDB, but today I upgraded to Lion/xcode4.1
and I get tons of errors before every method declaration in the FMDB Classes like:

"Expected declaration specifiers before '+' token"

Do I miss something here?

[ccgus]

I've not seen these errors. Can you paste the whole error message from Xcode?

Thanks for the fast reply, here is the error:

[ccgus]

I have no idea.

[agileapplications]

I upgraded to xcode 4.2 and it works again.

Issue closed.

[wengxx]

hi brother,I also encountered this problem, how did you solve it

[jeremyellison]

I had a similar issue with my own project and fixed it by switching to the Apple LLVM compiler 3.0. Leaving this here for anyone who gets here via google, like I did.

[pavanr]

We encountered a similar issue in our project and using a #import <sqlite3.h> instead of #import "/usr/include/sqlite3.h" did the trick.

Thanks to Maria in this post : http://www.linkedin.com/groups/SQLite3-Lion-121874.S.62966926

Not sure this helps, but for others who reach here like me.
