Syntactically, there aren't a lot of options for 'z'. A better error message might be something like bug.c:3: error: parse error between ':' and '{'. Expecting that "z" would be the name of a class. Here's the code: class y: z { public: }; -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-2-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages g++-3.3 depends on: ii gcc-3.3 1:3.3.5-5 The GNU C compiler ii gcc-3.3-base 1:3.3.5-5 The GNU Compiler Collection (base ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-20 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libstdc++5-3.3-dev 1:3.3.5-5 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 (d -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
