'specifier' : unknown override specifier

The compiler found a token in the position where it expected to find an override specifier, but the token was not recognized by the compiler.

For more information, see Override Specifiers (C++ Component Extensions).

The following sample generates C3646:

// C3646.cpp
// compile with: /clr /c
ref class C {
   void f() unknown;   // C3646
   // try the following line instead
   // virtual void f() abstract;
};
