how would it return ptr. Would it copy the pointer ptr using the copy constructor and then destroy it as the function goes out of scope?

// C2653.cpp
// compile with: /c
class yy {
   void func1(int i);
};

void xx::func1(int m) {}   // C2653
void yy::func1(int m) {}   // OK

// C2653b.cpp
namespace a::b {int i;}   // C2653

namespace a {
   namespace b {
      int i;
   }
}

int main() {
   a::b::i = 2;
}

if you are using precompiled headers stdafx.h must be first. This is probably not the issue as you would get a different error message, but probably good practice.

Everything before #include "stdafx.h" gets ignored by the preprocessor.

The problem with this is that when you edit the .CPP files and insert #includes, #defines, declarations, or other code before the "#include 'stdafx.h'" line, all of it is ignored by the compiler. This is the correct behavior because when the compiler is using the precompiled header, it starts to compile the code in the .CPP file after skipping past the "stdafx.h" line.

Ok I gotcha. I was thinking of when the precompiled header is precompiled, everything
through the indicated file is precompiled

By the way, what is a 'public class', I know that for nested classes you can have public / private etc, but in global scope? What would a private class do?
