Thread: Compile issue in g++, works fine in VS

Hi
The g++ compiler generates the following error output for the code below. This code compiles fine in Visual Studio. Any ideas as to why this code fails in g++?


factory.h: In member function ‘bool Factory<Base>::Register(ObjectType, CreatorBase<Base>*)’:
factory.h:45: error: expected `;' before ‘it’
factory.h:47: error: ‘it’ was not declared in this scope

Thanks
Ken
