VC++: Weird compiler errors

I'm working in visual studio with DirectX and today I've gotten some weird compiler errors that don't make any sense (to me at least)...

These are the errors I get:

error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '.' error C2059: syntax error开发者_StackOverflow社区 : ')'

I've double checked my code and didn't spot any typos/mistakes (I could be wrong...)

I'm hoping that someone can tell me what the error usually means and where to look...

I'll put some code below with the indication of the line where the errors occur (in case you want to check)

Extra info: m_ImTexture2D is a member struct. Vertex.PosTex is a struct within a struct

In C++, the scope resolution operator is ::, not .; consequently, you need to use Vertex::PosTex rather than Vertex.PosTex.
