I get these error messages:
aap.cc: In member function 'void Bar::function(T)':
aap.cc:16: error: expected `;' before 'it'
aap.cc:18: error: 'it' was not declared in this scope
When I compile this code:
#include
#include
template
class Foo {
public:
void function(T arg) { std::cout << arg; }
};
template
class Bar {
std::list *> foo_list;
public:
void function(T arg)
{
std::list *>::iterator it;
for (it = foo_list.begin(); it!=foo_list.end(); it++) {
Foo *el = (*it);
el->function (arg);
}
}
};
int
main(void)
{
#if 0
// Enabling this gives a better error message
Bar bar;
bar.function(1);
#endif
return 1;
}
When you enabled the #ifdeffed out code you will get these much clearer error
messages too:
aap.cc: In member function 'void Bar::function(T) [with T = int]':
aap.cc:31: instantiated from here
aap.cc:16: error: dependent-name 'std::list*,std::allocator*>
>::iterator' is parsed as a non-type, but instantiation yields a type
aap.cc:16: note: say 'typename std::list*,std::allocator*>
>::iterator' if a type is meant
