C++ forbids declaration of ‘TestFixtureType'

[Rob bert]

I am getting an infuriating compiler error that I cannot for the life of me figure out. The primary problem seems to be the first error of: ISO C++ forbids declaration of TestFixtureType.

plugins/testsarb_binary/boundstest.h:17: error: ISO C++ forbids declaration of ‘TestFixtureType’ with no type
plugins/testsarb_binary/boundstest.h: In static member function ‘static const CppUnit::TestNamer&<anonymous class>::getTestNamer__()’:
plugins/testsarb_binary/boundstest.h:17: error: expected primary-expression before ‘)’ token
plugins/testsarb_binary/boundstest.h: In static member function ‘static void<anonymous class>::addTestsToSuite(CppUnit::TestSuiteBuilderContex
tBase&)’:
plugins/testsarb_binary/boundstest.h:18: error: ‘TestFixtureType’ is not a class or namespace

I have done some research and this usually means that you aren't including the right paths or namespaces. However, I include the cppunit/include directory, and it doesn't seem like I have a namespace issue. Obviously the macros get expanded, but I don't know how I would fix the problem in the macro.

my compile is:
"g++"  -ftemplate-depth-128 -O0 -fno-inline -Wall -g -fPIC -m32 -Wno-unused-variable -Wno-reorder   -I"/home/**/**/include" -I"/home/**/**/plugins/testHelper" -I"/home/**/**/vendor/cppunit/include"  -c -o "/home/**/**/bin/plugins/testsarb_binary/gcc/debug/boundstest.o" "plugins/testsarb_binary/boundstest.cpp"

my code is as follows:

#ifndef arb_binary_bounds_test
#define arb_binary_bounds_test

#include "../arb_binary_bounds.h"
#include "testHelper.h"
#include <cppunit/extensions/HelperMacros.h>
#include <cppunit/TestFixture.h>

class arb_binary_bounds_test : public CppUnit::TestFixture {
    CPPUNIT_TEST_SUITE(arb_binary_bounds_test);
    CPPUNIT_TEST (valuesNotPresent);
    CPPUNIT_TEST_SUITE_END ();
public:

    void setUp();
    void tearDown();

    //tests to make sure that incomplete values does
    //not break test
   //the tests should contain values that don't correspond
    //to this test
    void valuesNotPresent();

private:
    testHelper help;
    ctc::pluginFramework::arb_binary_bounds b;
};
#endif

I will also include the cpp file:

CPPUNIT_TEST_SUITE_REGISTRATION(arb_binary_bounds_test);

    arb_binary_bounds_test::arb_binary_bounds_test(std::string name){

    }

    void arb_binary_bounds_test::setUp(){
    }

    void arb_binary_bounds_test::tearDown(){
    }

    /**
    * valusesnotpresent tests to make sure incomplete input objects
    * do not cause the test to fail
    * \param testfile is a string containing xml to test the testfile should not create any errors.
    */
    void arb_binary_bounds_test::valuesnotpresent(){
        CPPUNIT_ASSERT(5>4);
    }
