classes, inheritance and include problems

My problem looks as follows. I've got two classes Unit which is a base class for infantry they're in separate files

infantry.h

Code:

#ifndef JB_INFANTRY_H_INCL
#define JB_INFANTRY_H_INCL

#include"main.h"
#include"Unit.h"

class Infantry : public Unit
{
  public:
  Infantry();
  ~Infantry();

  UnitType unittype();
  void heal();
  void fortify();

  private:
  int fortification;
};

#endif

unit.h

Code:

#ifndef JB_UNIT_H_INCL
#define JB_UNIT_H_INCL

#include"main.h"

class Unit
{
  public:
    
  Unit();
  virtual ~Unit();


  void SetOwner(OwnerType towhat);
  void SetHealth(int towhat);
  void SetActionpoints(int towhat);
  void SetPosition(int towhat[]);
  void SetListposition(int towhat);

  int GetAtt();
  int GetDef();
  OwnerType GetOwner();
  int GetActionpoints();
  int GetHealth();
  int GetMaxap();
  int *GetPosition();
  int GetListposition();

  UnitType virtual unittype();
  void virtual heal();
  //void virtual action(int direction);

  //add attack and move

  protected:

  int att,def,actionpoints,listposition,maxap,health,position[2];
  OwnerType owner;
};

#endif

problem is that when i'm compiling this i get error in infantry.h
"11 C:\Dev-Cpp\Projects\KOS\Infantry.h expected class-name before '{' token "
whats wrong ? I can't get it ?

return_type virtual whatever();

should be

virtual return_type whatever();

hmm i correcteed it but i still get the same error. It looks like it didn't initialize class unit and don't recognize it...

could it be that you have something like

Code:

#include "Infantry.h"
#include "Unit.h"

in main.h ?

no i haven't got it.
I've tried to move all includes to main.h and only include main.h in all other files.
but then it come out with some other even stranger errors.
Damn and yesterday it was all working.

For a test I would comment out all the #includes in the headers, and put the #includes into the implementation files only. Be careful to get the order right. Then compile each module separately and see what happens.

Edit: Thanks for help.I rearranged all includes and it's working fine now. I was also trying to use in unit class function that was using unit class element, i think that was a problem.
