[Bug c++/18843] New: syntax error when getting iterator of an stl class (I tested with map)

[cs dot f at freemail dot hu]

Hi, 
 
gcc version is: 3.3.3 
 
possible bug: 
Example code: test_template_map.cpp 
#include <map> 
#include <string> 
 
template<class TMap> 
bool CheckMap(TMap map) 
{ 
        TMap::const_iterator i; 
         
        i = map.find(12); 
         
        return i == map.end ? false : true; 
} 
 
using namespace std; 
 
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) 
{ 
  map<int, string> map; 
         
        bool b = CheckMap(map); 
 
  return EXIT_SUCCESS; 
} 
 
When I compile (g++ -save-temps test_template_map.cpp) this code than I get: 
"/home/fec/Projektek/test_template_map/src/test_template_map.cpp:7: error: 
syntax error before `;' token" 
 
line  7 is: TMap::const_iterator i;. 
I think this should compile, it should be: map<int, string>::const_iterator. 
I have checked code: - TMap::iterator i; - I've got the same error message. 
I checked the same example code on an other c++ compiler and it compiled 
without error. 
 
Kind regards, 
Csaba
