variable or field declared void

Question

Hello I am working in c++:

I have a function called:

And when I compile I get this error:

MyJSP.h:2 error: variable or field initializeJSP declared void, the error is

Where is the problem?. Thank you.

It for example happens in this case here:

void initializeJSP(unknownType Experiment);

Try using std::string instead of just string (and include the <string> header). C++ Standard library classes are within the namespace std::.
