	Hello, I am having problems compiling this code: Code (C++) struct ChannelBlender { public: virtual uint8_t blend(uint8_t A, uint8_t B) { return 0; } uint32_t blend(uint32_t A, uint32_t B) { return blend(A & 0xff0000 >> 10, B & 0xff0000 >> 10) << 10 \| blend(A & 0xff00 >> 8, B & 0xff0000 >> 8) << 8 \| blend(A & 0xff, B & 0xff); } }; uint32_t thingy(ChannelBlender something) { //.... return 23; } void setup() { } void loop() { } It is giving me the errors: Code test__.ino: 9:17: error: 'ChannelBlender' was not declared in this scope public Error compiling .ino project source test__.ino: In function uint32_t thingy(ChannelBlender) Debug build failed for project 'test__' test__.ino: 21:41: error: 'uint32_t thingy(ChannelBlender)' redeclared as different kind of symbol uint32_t thingy(ChannelBlender something) test__.ino: 9:10: error: previous declaration of 'uint32_t thingy public However, arduino ide (and other ides) compile fine. Why is this happening?

	The arduino ide will make function prototypes with user defined structs under some conditions but not all. Visual Micro leaves you to add them where and when applicable which is somewhere between where the type if defined and where the function is defined. I have added a prototype for you in the code below. note: When using cpp/h files you always need to add your own prototypes so it is a good thing to learn. Prototypes are exact same definition as the function signature with ; on the end Code struct ChannelBlender { public: virtual uint8_t blend(uint8_t A, uint8_t B) { return 0; } uint32_t blend(uint32_t A, uint32_t B) { return blend(A & 0xff0000 >> 10, B & 0xff0000 >> 10) << 10 \| blend(A & 0xff00 >> 8, B & 0xff0000 >> 8) << 8 \| blend(A & 0xff, B & 0xff); } }; uint32_t thingy(ChannelBlender something); uint32_t thingy(ChannelBlender something) { //.... return 23; } void setup() { } void loop() { }
