STL problem.

#include <map>

using namespace std;

template <typename S, typename T>
void bar(void) {
map<S,T>::iterator theiter;
}

int main(void) {
return 0;
}

At the declaration of theiter, gcc (both 3.4 and 4.0) gives me:

error: expected ';' before "theiter"

Am I totally braindead or why does this not work?

You need to use 'typename' to tell compiler iterator is a dependant
type, not a member varible of map. The following should work.
#include <map>

using namespace std;

template <typename S, typename T>
void bar(void) {
typename map<S,T>::iterator theiter;

}

int main(void) {
return 0;

}

Thanks.

So who isn't compliant, VC or gcc?

VC. Especially VC6.

As others have pointed out, you need the keyword "typename". But I
believe that gcc 3.3.2 used to issue a better error message (or was it
merely a warning?) -- something like "implicit typename is
deprecated...".

use:

typename map<S,T>::iterator theiter;
