Sorry about not writing the question properly. Will keep in mind in future. I am using MinGW. The problem was got resolved when I removed the iterListItem and structListItem as templates and made them regular classes.

Hi

//listM<LISTITEM>::structListItem<LISTITEM> *currStructList;
class listM<LISTITEM>::structListItem *currStructList;

Does it help?

Also you need remove the definition of structListItem as a template (or change the name of the template)

template<class T>
class A{
//  template<class T> //you've got your type because you are inside A<T>
  B{ 
    T obj; //no problem
  };
};
