illegal use?

[programmeraie125]

I have received an error saying "Illegal use of this type as an expression", why is my compiler throwing this error?

	if (m_pPlayer->GetPlayerPos().x < BasicEnemy.GetEnemyPos().x) 
	{
		Direction = LEFT;
	}
	else 
	{
		Direction = RIGHT;
	}

	if (m_pPlayer->GetPlayerPos().y < BasicEnemy.GetEnemyPos().y) 
	{
		Direction = UP;
	}
	else 
	{
		Direction = DOWN;
	}

Without what any of those identifier mean, it's impossible to know. If I had to venture a guess, though, I'd guess that BasicEnemy is a type and not an object. A type name followed by a dot is not valid syntax. Maybe you meant to use ::? Like I said, it's impossible to tell without context.

sorry about that. The question was rushed =D and yea i was meant to be using :: it fixed now thanks for the help!
