Visual C++ Help please (Vector<>)

(1/1)

Davidtheo:
OK I have written this small program that helps me learn Chinese and it works in C++ but I want to have a GUI for it current no GUI, So I am transferring it over to Visual C++ making changes as I need too. I have come to a problem with my Vectors.

Error

--- Code: C++ ---errorC2923:'std::vector' : 'words' is not a vaild template type argument for parameter '_Ty'

the error is happening here.


--- Code: C++ ---// Chinese learning.cpp : main project file. #include "stdafx.h"#include "Form1.h"#include "words.h"#include <vector>#include <string>#include <fstream> using namespace Chineselearning;        //functions        void split(std::string, std::vector<std::string>&);        int checkword(std::vector<words>&, std::string);        void getword(std::vector<words>&, std::string);        void getfile(std::vector<words>&, std::vector<words>&);        //void outfile(std::vector<words>&, std::vector<words>&);        void print(std::vector<words>&);        int getrand(int);        void display(std::vector<words>&);         // TODO: Add extra initialization here        std::vector<words> vecWords;        std::vector<words> vecWordsTemp;        std::vector<std::string> words;    int input = 0;    int index = 0;        std::string lineIn;                //start        [STAThreadAttribute]int main(array<System::String ^> ^args){        // Enabling Windows XP visual effects before any controls are created        Application::EnableVisualStyles();        Application::SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);          // Create the main window and run it        Application::Run(gcnew Form1());         getfile(vecWords, vecWordsTemp);        return 0;}//ERROR happening on this line std::vector<words>& vecTempint checkword(std::vector<words>& vecTemp, std::string word){ int index = -1; if(vecTemp.size() != 0) {  for(std::vector<int>::size_type ix = 0; ix != vecTemp.size(); ++ix)  {   if(vecTemp[ix].getNewWord() == word)   {   return ix;   }//end if                                 }//end forloop  }//end if return index;     }//end checkword
words is a class not a template.

I am also getting some other error message that I have not looked at yet.

As I am learning Visual C++ please do not change the code and send it back to me. I would like to know what I am doing wrong and How to fix it.

Thanks.

At line 24 you have defined a variable std::vector<std::string> words so from then on the identifer words doesn't refer to your class.

Rename that variable and all is well :Thmbsup:
