Expected expression before '@' token main.m

Question

I added a GoogleAdMobAdsSdkiOS-6.1.4 SDK to my cocos2d app in order to integrate AdWhirl. When I added this Google SDK I got the following error:

Expected expression before '@' token main.m

This is the code looks like:

int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
    @autoreleasepool {
        return UIApplicationMain(argc, argv, nil,
                                 NSStringFromClass([AppDelegate class]));
    }
}

The error refers to a file called `main.m`, it isn't necessarily referring to your `main` function. — mttrb, Sep 09 '12 at 05:48
I added all the frameworks necessary to AdMob. I know it happens every time I implement the sdk file into my app. Once I delete it the errors go away. — user1530506, Sep 09 '12 at 05:51
If you do not post the requested stuff, you will not get the help you need. Errors usually have line numbers. Post the entire error. Also, as requested, post your main.m file, at least up to the line that contains the error. — Jody Hagins, Sep 09 '12 at 12:52
What version of Xcode are you using, and did you enable ARC? — borrrden, Sep 09 '12 at 14:01
Did you figure this out? I'm having the same issue.. Xcode Version 4.5.2 — iamruskie, Jan 18 '13 at 21:38

Are you sure that you're using a version of XCode that is 4.2 or above? I think @autoreleasepool is a newer syntax. This also won't work if your compiler is set to GCC. You can also just create your own NSAutoreleasePool using the old syntax if none of this works.

You can look at another answer to a similar question here.

I am using 4.4.1... I contacted AdWhirl and they stated that the new AdMob SDK is not supported by them. – user1530506 Sep 14 '12 at 00:26
anymore..... It used to be with their older SDK. I know that there is a way but I have not been able to figure it out. – user1530506 Sep 14 '12 at 01:52
Have you tried just changing the syntax for your autorelease pool's declaration as stated at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8553278/coreplot-expected-token-before-token? – RajPara Sep 17 '12 at 15:50
