multiple parameters with vectors

[cdg]

Is there any reason why code passing multiple parameters with a vector
is not legal.
I have left out most of the unneccessary details to try and make the
problem clearer. Earlier in the program the vector is passed without any
problems, but it was the only parameter.

#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;

void CompareValues(vector<int>& cards,int,int); //prototype

void main()
{

}

void AnotherFunction()
{
CompareValues(vector<int>& any_vector, result, ct); //function call
//*** I am getting an error message here, saying
// "illegal use of this type as an expression"
}

void CompareValues(vector<int>& any_vector, int result, int ct)
{

}

[cdg]

This is the correct code to show the problem. There were different vector
names in the previously posted code that I had changed just to post the
problem with multiple parameters.

#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;

void CompareValues(vector<int>& any_vector,int,int); //prototype

void main()
{

}

void AnotherFunction()
{
CompareValues(vector<int>& any_vector, result, ct); //function call
//*** I am getting an error message here, saying
// "illegal use of this type as an expression"

}

void CompareValues(vector<int>& any_vector, int result, int ct)
{

}

Try

CompareValues(any_vector, result, cnt);

Do not put the argument type in the function call.

I tried it and it did work. And I actually had written it correctly
earlier in the program, but I didn't notice it this time.
