typedef issues with VC 8.0

[tissyrose]

Hi All,

I am porting a very large application from VC++ 6.0 to VS 2005. There
are many issues I am facing. One of them is I am getting an error

"cannot access private typedef declared in class" . I removed the
typedef then I am getting the following error.
syntax error missing ';' before '*'
Below is the code snippet..

class MyData {
CMap<CStringEx, const CStringEx &, void *, void *DataMap;

static DataMap * getInstanceDataMap();
};

Can anybody help Please..??

Thank you

That is probably not the right solution, and it results in the error
you describe below.

syntax error missing ';' before '*'
Below is the code snippet..

class MyData {
CMap<CStringEx, const CStringEx &, void *, void *DataMap;

static DataMap * getInstanceDataMap();
};

Probably, but you have to help us to help you. Follow the posting
guidelines for code that doesn't work:

http://parashift.com/c++-faq-lite/ho...t.html#faq-5.8

The gist: post a minimal but complete sample that demonstrates the
problem.

Cheers! --M

This is just a compile error .. May be the issue with the typedef like

class MyData {
typedef CMap<CStringEx, const CStringEx &, void *, void *DataMap;

static DataMap * getInstanceDataMap();
};

With typedef it says ":cannot access private typedef declared in class"
under vc 8 compiler..

Cheers

Doesn't MS have a solution for that using CMapEx? Also, void*s are
frowned upon in C++ since they render a compiler blind. However, since
there is no such thing as a CMap in C++ , i'ld suggest posting your
question to a relevent newsgroup.

[5.9] Which newsgroup should I post my questions?

Please don't top-post
(http://parashift.com/c++-faq-lite/ho....html#faq-5.4). I've
fixed it here.

As for your problem, it's still not minimal and complete because I
can't copy and paste it into my editor without adding things like CMap
and CStringEx. Please try again.

Cheers! --M

If I try to compile this I'll get a lot of errors, such as CMap is not
defined. CStringEx is not defined, getInstanceDataMap is not defined,
etc...

Write a small program that you are trying to compile that gives the error.
And post the code here.

The snippet you have shown is not enough information to tell you what is
wrong.

If you don't do that, then check your program on line 42, there's the error.
