Most common problem that causes this sort of error is forgetting to put a
semi-colon after the word "end" at the end of a class or procedure
declaration. This means everything that follows up to the next semi-colon
is treated as part of a comment (known as an "end comment"). Check that your
code does not have this problem. e.g.


class fred;
begin

end

class jane;
begin

end;


The words "class jane" are treated as a comment in SIMULA (as in Algol 60).
