cannot combine with previous 'type-name' declaration specifier

Question

My iOS app was working and all of a sudden I\'m seeing this error: \"cannot combine with previous \'type-name\' declaration specifier\". Any ideas on what could be causing t

Answer 1

I got it in a header file when in fact the error was in the .cpp. Turns out I had a method trying to return a bool in a sketchy way:

return (x == 1 && y == 2);

Which it turns out doesn't work, but Xcode told me in this very obscure way.

Not sure if this helps, but it's another example in a seeming desert of them.
