no match for 'operator>>'
I'm having some trouble with the below section of code. I'm not sure what the problem is with the >>. Any help would be great.
vector.cpp: In member function 'void employee::loadEmployee(std::ifstream&)':
vector.cpp:51: error: no match for 'operator>>' in 'fin >> ((employee*)this)->employee::surname'
vector.cpp:52: error: no match for 'operator>>' in 'fin >> ((employee*)this)->employee::hourlyRate'
vector.cpp:53: error: no match for 'operator>>' in 'fin >> ((employee*)this)->employee::empNumber'
Code:
void loadEmployee(ifstream &fin) {
fin >> surname;
fin >> hourlyRate;
fin >> empNumber;
}
