can anyone find the problem in my code

With the code:

Code:

---

#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <cstring>

class LinkedList
{
  public:

    LinkedList();
    ~LinkedList();
    void AddNode(char* Name);
    void DeleteList();

  protected:

    struct node
    {
        char MenuName[20];
        node* nxt;
    };

    node* root;
    node* tempnode;
    node* tempnode2;
    node* TraverseList(node* end = NULL);

};

LinkedList::LinkedList()
{
    root = NULL;
    tempnode = NULL;
    tempnode2 = NULL;
}

LinkedList::~LinkedList()
{
    DeleteList();
}

void LinkedList::AddNode(char* Name)
{
    tempnode = new node;
    tempnode->nxt = NULL;
    strncpy(tempnode->MenuName, Name, 19);

    tempnode2 = TraverseList();

    if (tempnode2 == NULL)
        root = tempnode;
    else
        tempnode2->nxt = tempnode;
    return;
}

void LinkedList::DeleteList()
{
    while (root != NULL)
    {
        tempnode = TraverseList();

        if (tempnode == root)
        {
            root = NULL;
            delete tempnode;
            tempnode = NULL;
        }
        else
        {
            tempnode2 = TraverseList(tempnode);
            tempnode2->nxt = NULL;
            delete tempnode;
            tempnode = NULL;
            tempnode2 = NULL;
        }
    }
    return;
}

node* LinkedList::TraverseList(node* end = NULL)
{
    if (root == NULL)
        return NULL;

    node* tnode = root;

    while (tnode->nxt != end)
    {
        tnode = tnode->nxt;
    }
    return tnode;
}

int main()
{
    LinkedList l;
    l.AddNode("Hello");
    l.AddNode("Goodbye");
    l.AddNode("So Long");
    return 0;
}

my compiler gives me the error "syntax error before `*'"
at

node* LinkedList::TraverseList(node* end = NULL)

and "syntax error before `*'"
at

node* tnode = root;

Can anyone help?
Thanks!

node is not declared globaly redefine the function as follows.

LinkedList::node* LinkedList::TraverseList(node* end = NULL)
{
if (root == NULL)
return NULL;

node* tnode = root;

while (tnode->nxt != end)
{
tnode = tnode->nxt;
}
return tnode;
}

thanks that worked.
