extra qualification error in C++

This is because you have the following code:

class JSONDeserializer
{
    Value JSONDeserializer::ParseValue(TDR type, const json_string& valueString);
};

This is not valid C++ but Visual Studio seems to accept it. You need to change it to the following code to be able to compile it with a standard compliant compiler (gcc is more compliant to the standard on this point).

class JSONDeserializer
{
    Value ParseValue(TDR type, const json_string& valueString);
};

The error come from the fact that JSONDeserializer::ParseValue is a qualified name (a name with a namespace qualification), and such a name is forbidden as a method name in a class.


This means a class is redundantly mentioned with a class function. Try removing JSONDeserializer::
