Procedure that returns list<MyClass> cannot compile

[Ana Developer]

Hello all,

I have a class called MyClass defined in C++. And I have a procedure that wants to return a list with MyClass objects.

I have the procedure declared on top of my code as:

static list<MyClass> MyProcedure(char *, int);

//then defined:

static list<MyClass> MyProcedure(char *searchstr, int pos)
{

}

But, when I compile I get the following errors:

1.error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed.
2.error C3861: 'MyProcedure': identifier not found
3. error C2447: '{' : missing function header (old-style formal list?)
... and seven more.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

static? I don't think you can have that on a global function.

Is it better if I return a pointer to my objects?

Even with a removed static the errors are the same.

Have you tried std::list?

Just in case, please list all 10 or so errors.

Thanks, std::list solved the issue! =]
