error 2666?

[BCC]

Hi,

I have some very simple code:

class CTest
{
public:
CTest(void) {};
~CTest(void) {};
};

// In another part of the code
std::vector<CTest> test_vec;
CTest ct;
test_vec.push_back(ct);
Doesn't seem like anything unusual to me, but VC++ .NET gives me a 2666
error, saying:
std::Ptrit<//etc, etc>::operator + : 2 overloads have similar conversions

Am I missing the obvious or is there something else going on?

Thanks,
B

The semicolons are superfluous, just like the keywords 'void', but
that's OK. I don't think it is the problem.
};

// In another part of the code
std::vector<CTest> test_vec;
CTest ct;
test_vec.push_back(ct);
What surrounds this "part of code"? What else does the class
CTest have that you're not disclosing?

Nothing unusual for us either. Newcomers always post incomplete
code making us guess what the rest of the program looks like...
but VC++ .NET gives me a 2666

I don't know. You didn't post enough code to make any meaningful
conclusion. Read the FAQ list, I think FAQ 5.8 should give you
an idea what to do. You can find C++ FAQ Lite on this site:

Nothing looks wrong, but you should post the complete
context around your "another part of the code".
