I have written a library, but have problem with error does not name a type. I've tryed everything, searched for couple of hours and no luck. Library is placed in the "libraries" folder of the arduino sketch folder. Please help!!! I am using OSX, but the same problem occurs on Windows also.

This is header file of the library:

```
#ifndef OpticalSensor_h
#define OpticalSensor_h

#include <Arduino.h>
#include <SD.h>
#include <Wire.h>
#include <Adafruit_MCP23017.h>
#include <Adafruit_RGBLCDShield.h>
#include <String.h>

class OpticalSensor
{
    public:
        OpticalSensor(int analogPort);
        void LCDInit(int columns, int rows);
        void SerialInit(int bitRate);
        void SDInit();
        double& ReadFromAnalogPort();
        void SDCreateFile(String fileName);
        void SDDeleteFile(String fileName);
        void SDWriteToFile(String fileName);
        void SDStreamToFile(String Text);
        void SDOpenFileToStream(String fileName);
    private:
        int _analogPort;
        bool _displayFlag;
        Adafruit_RGBLCDShield _lcd;
        File _MainRecFile;
        double _voltage;
        void _LCDClearAll();
        void _LCDWriteInTwoRows(String row1, String row2);
        void _DelayAndClearLCD(bool returnStatus);
};

#endif

```

This is .cpp file of the library:

```
#include <OpticalSensor.h>

Adafruit_RGBLCDShield _lcd;

    // Note that even if it's not used as the CS pin, the hardware SS pin
    // (10 on most Arduino boards, 53 on the Mega) must be left as an output
    // or the SD library functions will not work.
    pinMode(10, OUTPUT);

    //check if SD can be found and initialized. Print also message to
    //Serial if initialized and to _lcd if initialized.
   if(!SD.begin(4)) {
     if(Serial){
         Serial.println("Initialization failed!");
     }
     if(_lcd){
         _lcd.print("Init failed!");
     }
     _DelayAndClearLCD(true);
   }
   else {

}

    //and writes apropriate response to
    //lcd and Serial if they are initialized.
    if(SD.exists(fileName)) {

        }
        _MainRecFile = SD.open(fileName + ".txt", FILE_WRITE);

    }
}

//delete file from SD card
void OpticalSensor::SDDeleteFile(String fileName)
{

}

//open file, write data to it, and close file after.
void OpticalSensor::SDWriteToFile(String fileName, String Text)
{
    _MainRecFile = SD.open(fileName + ".txt", FILE_WRITE);
    _MainRecFile.println(Text);
    _MainRecFile.close();
}

//Open file to stream data to it.
void OpticalSensor::SDOpenFileToStream(String fileName)
{
    _MainRecFile = SD.open(fileName + ".txt", FILE_WRITE);
}

//Write data to file while file is open.
//Notice that you can stream data only to one file at a time!!!
//For instance, if you have two sensors that you want to
//write data to two different files, you have to use SDWriteToFile
//function!!!
void OpticalSensor::SDStreamToFile(String Text)
{
    if(_MainRecFile) {
        _MainRecFile.println(Text);
    }
}

//close file that you streamed data too.
void OpticalSensor::SDCloseStreaming(String fileName)

    _MainRecFile.close();
}

//clear entire LCD
void OpticalSensor::_LCDClearAll()
{
    _lcd.clear();
    _lcd.setCursor(0,0);
}

void OpticalSensor::_LCDWriteInTwoRows(String row1, String row2)
{
    //write first String in row1
    _lcd.print(row1);
    //set cursor to the beginning of row 2
    _lcd.setCursor(0,1);

    //and clear LCD

        if(_lcd)
            _LCDClearAll();
    }
    //terminate
    if(bool == true) {
        return;
    }
}

double& ReadFromAnalogPort()
{
    _voltage = analogRead(_analogPort);
    return _voltage;
}

```

And this is the .ino file where library is included:

```
#include <OpticalSensor.h>

OpticalSensor sensor(0);

void setup() {
  sensor.LCDInit(16,2);
  sensor.SerialInit(9600);
  sensor.SDInit();
  sensor.SDCreateFile("test1");
  sensor.SDOpenFileToStream("test1");
}

void loop() {

}

```

this is the error:
