[gme-users] Skeleton Decorator

[Mohammed Iqbal]

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am having problems trying to build the skeleton dummy decorator, I have the 
following errors:

	coclass Decorator

	};

};

I understand the problem is to do with the format of the UUID, but I havnt made 
any changes to the files that come with the DecorKit zip file (except the 
DecoratorConfig.h file).
So my question is where am I going wrong?
I would appreciate any help you could give me on this matter.

Yours Sincerely

Mohammed Iqbal
