RE: [Dev-C++] compiling project fails

[Per W. <pw...@ia...>]

I can't really see what stupidity there is to require a semicolon after a
type or data declaration. There is really no difference from

  enum Color { RED, GREEN, BLUE };

  int hello,there;

  typedef unsigned Age;

  struct Person {
    std::string name;
    Age age;
  };

  unsigned short seed[] = {0x18da,0xbc3c,0x52f4,0x5100};

  ...
