GCC error when using code blocks for const unsigned long

Consider this code

class Reflect : public flemax::annotation::XAnnotation {
  public:
    Reflect(const unsigned long id, const std::string& home, const char type, const std::string& name = "me", const int value = 4, const bool valid = false, const signed char gender = 'M') : id_(id), home_(home), type_(type), name_(name), value_(value), valid_(valid), gender_(gender){} 
    ~Reflect() {}

    const unsigned long id() { return id_; }
    const std::string& home() { return home_; }
    const char type() { return type_; }
    const std::string& name() { return name_; }
    const int value() { return value_; }
    const bool valid() { return valid_; }
    const signed char gender() { return gender_; }

  private:
    const unsigned long id_;
    const std::string home_;
    const char type_;
    const std::string name_;
    const int value_;
    const bool valid_;
    const signed char gender_;

}; // class Reflect

it does not compile, and the compiler gives me this strange error.

when i delete the unsigned modifier everything works fine. I probably coded the last 24 hours, so I don’t understand what happened and I am amazed. I do not want to sleep until this code compiles as it is.

am using code blocks on ubuntu and gcc 4.4.3

Thank you men

I would argue that you have #define unsigned WHATEVERsomewhere. Or maybe you are compiling with -Dunsigned=WHATEVER.

So, the compiler sees const WHATEVER long xeverywhere, and the type longdoes not make sense.
