Thread: "cannot convert" error

I'm trying to write the delete function of a stack class, and i'm getting the error:

error C2440: '=' : cannot convert from 'struct dataNode *' to 'struct Stack::deleteRec::dateNode *'

Code:

class Stack
{ private: 
    struct dataNode* listPtr;
    struct dataNode* endPtr;
    int listSize;
    bool empty();
  public:
    Stack();
    void insert(struct dataNode*);
    void deleteRec();
    int size();
    void show();
};



void Stack::deleteRec()
{  struct dateNode* nextPtr;
   nextPtr = endPtr;
   for (int i=0;i<listSize-1;i++)
   {  nextPtr = nextPtr->next;
   }
   delete nextPtr;
   listPtr=nextPtr;
   listSize--;
}

The error is for the second line of the deleteRec. As far as i can see, endPtr is of an identical type as nextPtr so i dont know why it's complaining, especially as it let me do this in another function above it.


Thanks in advance

yup pretty obvious but somehow i did't notice that after spending about 15 minutes looking at that function. Althought in my defence, im new to c and i would of assumed that c would have noticed that there is no such struct as datenote and given an error, instead of going straight past it then complaining when i try to refer to it.
