Title: Error during program compilation
Post by: Fredy on May 28, 2023, 05:15:56 pm

Hi,
I am using codeblocks release 20.03. Recently installed. I get a warning message "main is usually a function" and a syntax error when I use user-defined functions. Any ideas?

The screenshot attached shows a simple program, for instance.

The prototype must end with a semicolon.

The prior posted already answered what was the cause of the error.
