static_pointer_ cast not declared in this scope

[Tim H]

help?!?

#include <boost/shared_ptr.hpp>
class pp_dirent {};
class pp_scope: public pp_dirent {};

int main() {
boost::shared_p tr<pp_direntp1( new pp_scope());
boost::shared_p tr<pp_scopep2 =
static_pointer_ cast<pp_scope>( p1);
return 0;
}
g++ test.cpp -o test
test.cpp: In function int main():
test.cpp:8: error: static_pointer_ cast was not declared in this scope
test.cpp:8: error: expected primary-expression before token
What?

You have an error in function 'main'.

test.cpp:8: error: static_pointer_ cast was not declared in this scope

It was that 'static_pointer ' was not used but haven't been declared.
Perhaps you meant something like 'boost::static_ pointer_cast'.

test.cpp:8: error: expected primary-expression before token

And at the point of detecting that, the compiler had parsed your code as
far as the latest '>' token on line 8, where it expected a primary
expression, not some undeclared name.

What?

What what?

Just read the compiler's diagnostic messages.

Corrected typos:
