Maybe you renamed a bit more than needed. I meant local variables *only*.
Just follow the error messages that XCode emits, and rename where needed.

Because you compile *.mm modules, don't you? So you actually invoke
ObjectiveC compiler. In general, it's able to compile standard c++,
but has some limitations. In this particular case, "id" is a reserved
word in ObjC.
