I'm not sure, but I'd guess you had some C99-like options on by
default, and they have been turned off when you updated (so it's trying
to do 'pure' pre-C99 C). Check your options, and activate any that say
something about C99, that should get it working again.

Amazing!!!
I have been developing software on Cocoa since 2001.... and I was
always
able to declare variables in the middle of the methods. I have
thousands of
lines of code with variables declared in the middle of the method. For
sure!
And it worked very well.
And even if I upgraded from OS X 10 throught 10.2.6 and from the first
to
the last version of Developer Tools, I was able to do that all the
time.
What should I think? Maybe I have to mark some check-box?
Maybe in my machine something has been corrupted?
Only now, after I tried one only time to launch XCode and compile a
short
application, I got that error message, then I closed XCode and stuffed
it.
Now I am using Project Builder 2.1 and again I get that error message.
What should I do now? Should I fix thousands of lines of code?
HELP! :-O
Best Regards

I've only got PB 2.1 (Dec 2002) and I've never been able to do that,
gcc has always given me an error and I thought that I has read in one
of the Cocoa books that Objective-C doesn't allow that.

Hi,
Since I tried once only XCode, now using again Project Builder 2.1,
when I declare a variable in the middle of the method like "destName"
here
below
...
exist = [manager fileExistsAtPath:myPath isDirectory:&isDir];
NSString *destName = [newPath
stringByAppendingPathComponent:kFolder];
the compiler tells me: MYClass.m:436: parse error before `*'
meaning before "*destName"
To avoid the error message I have to declare the variables at the
begin of
the method, and this means a ton of work...
I have to do
- (void)myMethod
{
BOOL exist ;
NSString *destName;
exist = [manager fileExistsAtPath:myPath isDirectory:&isDir];
destName = [newPath stringByAppendingPathComponent:kFolder];
...
What did happen to the compiler?
How could I fix this? Help!
Best Regards
