Strange C++ error ...

OK, here's the error I'm getting when using G++:

Code:

g++ -c -O -w chart.cpp
chart.cpp: In method `void Chart::add(class Edge, class ToDo &, const class LexList &)':
chart.cpp:26: no matching function for call to `ToDo::add (int, Chart &)'
chart.h:32: candidates are: ToDo::add(const Edge &, const Chart &)
chart.cpp:37: no matching function for call to `ToDo::add (int, Chart &)'
chart.h:32: candidates are: ToDo::add(const Edge &, const Chart &)
make: *** [chart.o] Error 1

What is making me extremely mad is the error I get on Line 26. I am calling ToDo::add with an Edge and a Chart, as the suggestion on the following line states. Specifically, here's the function call:

Code:

toDoList.add(meld(tempEdge, newEdge), *this);

where meld(Edge, Edge) returns an Edge. How the hell does the compiler get an int out of this??! What can I do to correct this error?

Can you post the meld functions prototype ?

like nvoigt said about the proto...as for the 2nd param, pass as...

(const Chart) this

...should help. As far as I can tell, your meld() would have to return an int though to get that error. Maybe even try passing the return like this...


(const Edge) meld(arg1, arg2)

doesn't seem like it would call it an int if it weren't an int though ;x
