error C2143: syntax error : missing '{' before ':'

[rp_suman]

When I compile a C project in VC++ .Net, this error is coming in a standard vc++ file "cerrno": " error C2143: syntax error : missing '{' before ':'" The code is as follows:

#if _GLOBAL_USING
_STD_BEGIN
#ifndef errno
using ::errno; // <-- Compiler point error here
#endif /* errno */

How to solve this error? Am I missing any SP for vc++ or something else? Regards, Suman

please check setting of VC++ .net complier, might be it using path of older version!

Hi, Thanks for your help, but I was available of original compiler this evening and finished compile on that! But I will check your idea, when I will again work with VC++ for the same program. Regards, Suman

How to check the path of the compiler? In the new system where error happened, there was no VC++ .Net 2003 Toolkit installed. I installed it now. Do I need to set this path to somewhere in compiler? Regards, Suman
