Expected function body after function declarator

Hello, I just started to have a problem with my project.

I'm developing an iPhone application and my project just started to pop the following error on one file:

I have been looking for solutions to this problem, and none have proven useful.

I'm using XCode 4.6.2 under Mountain Lion 10.8.3, with deployment target 5.0 and compiler Apple LLVM compiler 4.2.

I really don't know why this is happening, haven't even modified this file for a while. It happens for both device and Simulator

Could anyone give me some pointers on how to solve this issue?

Try Option-Clean on the project.

Also quitting and restarting Xcode might clear that up.

It's not just one file, did you modify the .pch file.

No luck, I even tried deleting all the derived data of my project and nothing.

No, not at all, it's the same as in one of the earlier versions of the projects. It just started to pop those errors yesterday. Didn't modify any of that prefix stuff.

Also, the other errors in other files are because the other classes are inheriting from this particular one.

Do you have a snapshot or time machine backup?

No, but I have a backup from an earlier version, I even did a folder compare on the two versions and all that was different were the contents of files, and in the project file only the ids of the files, and the provisioning profiles.

I'm guessing either a corruption of a system header or you've introduced a collision with a system symbol.

It looks like you have added .h files to your target. Only .m files actually get added to a target. Header files are present in the project they they are only used as include files. You are attempting to compile them.

Select those header files in the project navigator. Then, show the inspector/Utilities pane if it isn't already visible. Under Target membership, your target should be unchecked for header files.

I never would have guessed especially since Inspector in Xcode 4.6.3 won't let you check the target box for a .h. You have to do it in the Build Phases.
