Hi.
Am new to c++ and need expert help in resolving error mentioned below.
The code below compiles fine on older Sun versions (CC 5.3 and 5.8).
Thanks so much.

DBSql Database::Table( const char* tableName ) 
{ 
     return Table( string( tableName ) );  
}


The function Table returns a DBSql object. return Table( string( tableName ) ); means Table should be recursively called until that stack is exhausted. At that point it attempts to return a DBSql object will fail. Hence the compilation error.

The errors at the other lines are similar in nature
