Compiler Error C2655

'identifier' : definition or redeclaration illegal in current scope

Remarks

An identifier can be redeclared only at global scope.

Example

The following example generates C2655:

// C2655.cpp
class A {};
class B {
public:
   static int i;
};

int B::i;  // OK

int main() {
   A B::i;  // C2655
}
