converting infix to postfix

I have an assignment to write a program that converts an infix mathematical expression into a postfix mathematical expression using a template class and a stack. I am inexperienced at using both and have been learning as I go along. What I have written so far works in my head but I cannot seem to get it to compile.

Code:

#include<iostream>
#include<iomanip>
#include<fstream>
#include<cmath>
#include "header.h"
using namespace std;
int main()
{
	char infix[50];
	char postfix[50];
	int k=0;
	int j=0;
	int token;
	for(int h=0; h<50; h++)
	{
		infix[h] = '#';
		postfix[h] = '#';
	}
	cout << "enter infix expression: ";
	cin.getline(infix, '\n');
	StackType<char>  Operator;
	char temp;
	token = infix[0];
	while(token != '=')
	{
		if(checkOperand(token))
		{
			postfix[k] = token;
			k++;
		}
		if(token == ')')
		{	
			temp = Operator.top();
			Operator.pop();
			while(temp != '(')
			{
				postfix[k] = temp;
				k++;
				Operator.pop();
			}
		}
		if(checkOperator(token))
		{
			if(tokenPrecedence(token)>=tokenPrecedence(Operator.top())||token=='(')
			{
				Operator.push(token);
			}
			else
			{
				temp = Operator.top();
				Operator.pop();
				postfix[k] = temp;
				k++;
				Operator.push(token);
			}
		}
		j++;
		token = infix[j];	
	}
	while(Operator.isEmpty()==false)
	{	
		temp = Operator.top();
		postfix[k] = temp;
		k++;
		Operator.pop();
	}
	postfix[k] = token;
	return 0;
}
bool checkOperand(int token)
{
	switch(token)
	{
	case 1:
	case 2:
	case 3:
	case 4:
	case 5:
	case 6:
	case 7:
	case 8:
	case 9:
	case 0:
		return true;
	default:
		return false;
	}
}
bool checkOperator(int token)
{
	switch(token)
	{
	case '+':
	case '-':
	case '/':
	case '*':
		return true;
	default: 
		return false;
		
	}
}
int tokenPrecedence(int token)
{
	int prec=0;
	switch(token)
	{
	case '*':
	case '/':
		prec = 1;
		break;
	case '+':
	case '-':
		prec = -1;
		break;
	default:
		break;
	}
}

And here is the implimentation file for the stack:

Code:

//Michael Bradford
//CPSCI 131
#include<iostream>
#include<iomanip>
using namespace std;
template <class plate>
StackType<plate>::StackType()
{
	top = -1; //initializing position of top value to -1
	MaxSize=50; //initializing the maximum size of the stack to 50
	size=0; //size of the stack
	the_array = new int[size]; //initializing the stack to the size of 0
}
template <class plate>
StackType<plate>::~StackType()
{
	delete [] the_array;
}
template <class plate>
bool StackType<plate>::isEmpty()
{
	bool truthvalue=false; //true or false if empty
	if(top==-1) //if the stack is empty than truthvalue is true
		truthvalue = true;
	return truthvalue;
}
template <class plate>
bool StackType<plate>::isFull()
{
	bool truthvalue=false; //true or false if full
	if(top==(MaxSize-1)) //if the stack us full than truthvalue is true
		truthvalue = true;
	return truthvalue;
}
template <class plate>
void StackType<plate>::push(int newItem)
{
	try
	{
		if(isFull()) //if stack is full than throw an error
			throw newItem;
		top++; //if stack is not full than make room
		the_array[top] = newItem; //add newItem to the top of the stack
	}
	catch(int e)
	{
		cout << "error! stack is full!"; //error if the stack is full
	}
}
template <class plate>
void StackType<plate>::pop()
{
	try
	{
		if(isEmpty()) //if stack is empty than throw an error
			throw isEmpty();
		top--;//if stack is not empty than remove item from top of stack
	}
	catch(bool e)
	{
		cout << "error! stack is empty!"; //error if the stack is empty
	}
}
template <class plate>
int StackType<plate>::top()
{
	try
	{
		if(isEmpty()) //if the stack is empty than throw an error
			throw isEmpty();
		return the_array[Top]; //if the stack is not empty than return the top value
	}
	catch(bool e)
	{
		cout << "error! stack is empty!"; //error if the stack is empty
	}
}

The errors I get are

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Looking at the constructor,

Code:

StackType<plate>::StackType()
{
	top = -1; //initializing position of top value to -1
	MaxSize=50; //initializing the maximum size of the stack to 50
	size=0; //size of the stack
	the_array = new int[size]; //initializing the stack to the size of 0
}

Shouldn't the_array be an array of type plate, rather than of type int? (And it should have size MaxSize, not size.)

Edit: Also, from the errors, top appears not to be an int variable.
