I encountered the same error, and was lead here by a google search. For anyone else who ends up here - the problem for me was this:

```
UFUNCTION( Client, Reliable ); // &lt;------ semicolon causes compile error
void ClientRPCFunction( int32 iInput );

```

Using this instead fixed it:

```
UFUNCTION( Client, Reliable ) // &lt;------ removed semicolon
void ClientRPCFunction( int32 iInput );

```

This was happening for me with Unreal 4.5, and the error was due to following the examples on this page:

```
https://docs.unrealengine.com/latest/INT/Gameplay/Networking/Replication/RPCs/index.html

```

If anyone from unreal is reading this, you may want to fix that document.

Thanks!
