Problem with std

lotios (13)
I'm trying to make a game in SDL and have started working on the menus. My problem is that I have an std::string declared in a class, and I get an error about it being undeclared. In another class, I have an std::vector declared and when I use it I get an error saying that it's undeclared. It's probably a simple mistake. Sorry for all of the code.

Here's "Menu.h":

Here's the errors I get:

setText/add are missing the ClassName:: in front of them.

I knew it would be something simple. Why didn't I see that?

Don't know about those but this is wrong. menus is a vector that contains menu pointers not menu objects.

void add(Menu menu)
{
	menus.push_back(menu);
}

Why didn't I see that? I should get my vision checked. Thanks for your help.
