Vector of Objects

[Sw0rDz]

Is it possible with Visual c++ to have an instance variable of an object to be a vector of an object?

ref class statList
{
public:
	vector<int> test;

	statList(void);
	int getSize();
	void add(pokeStats^ element);
};

I have the vector<int> test; commented out.

Alright, this is the code I'm using and the where the problem is. I have the pokeStats.h included and its an object I've made.

std::vector<pokeStats^> list;
void statList::add(pokeStats^ element)
{
	
	list.push_back(element);
}

I fail to see why there is an compiling error. Here is the error:
1>c:\users\justin\documents\visual studio 2008\projects\ev counter\ev counter\statList.h(8) : error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '<'
1>c:\users\justin\documents\visual studio 2008\projects\ev counter\ev counter\statList.h(8) : error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int

Erm, you are mixing CLI/C++ and C++...either use one or the other.

In C++, the get a pointer you use * like this: std::vector<int*>
In CLI/C++, you use ^ to get a "pointer" (it's more of a handle)

I've tried using the asterisk (*) verses the caret (^) and it gives me new errors.

error C3699: '*' : cannot use this indirection on type 'pokeStats'
1> compiler replacing '*' with '^' to continue parsing

So I changed them all to carets (^)

the carrot (^)

It's spelled "caret"

carrots are vegetables.

Oh I see. You are using CLI/C++, so you cannot use std::vector, etc. Instead, you would have use System::array or whatever the equivalent types are.
