Code compiles fine yet is marked as erroneous

[Modanung]

The bottom line in the following code from the Urho3D Game Engine is marked as erroneous:

template <class T> class ObjectFactoryImpl : public ObjectFactory
{
public:
    /// Construct.
    ObjectFactoryImpl(Context* context) :
        ObjectFactory(context)
    {
        type_ = T::GetTypeStatic();
        baseType_ = T::GetBaseTypeStatic();
        typeName_ = T::GetTypeNameStatic();
    }  
    /// Create an object of the specific type.
    virtual SharedPtr<Object>(CreateObject()) { return SharedPtr<Object>(new T(context_)); } 
};

expected '}' got 'return'
It compiles just fine though, should this be reported as a bug in QtCreator or magic?

Hi and welcome to devnet,

I might be wrong, but the signature of CreateObject is unusual for a function declaration. It should rather be

virtual SharedPtr<Object> CreateObject() { return SharedPtr<Object>(new T(context_)); }

That looks more familiar. Thanks for the clarification.
