Error Message

missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int

This error can be generated as a result of compiler conformance work that was done for Visual C++ 2005: all declarations must now explicitly specify the type; int is no longer assumed. See Breaking Changes in the Visual C++ 2005 Compiler for more information.

C4430 is always issued as an error. You can turn off this warning with the #pragma warning or /wd; see warning or /w, /Wn, /WX, /Wall, /wln, /wdn, /wen, /won (Warning Level) for more information.

Example

The following sample generates C4430.

	Copy Code
// C4430.cpp // compile with: /c struct CMyClass { CUndeclared m_myClass; // C4430 int m_myClass; // OK }; typedef struct { POINT(); // C4430 // try the following line instead // int POINT(); unsigned x; unsigned y; } POINT;
