stl list

What is wrong with this:

Code:

---


template<class T>
void printList(const List<T> &list)
{
...
}

---

I want to be able to create a template function using the list container, so i can print lists of ints, doubles, strings, etc....

thanks

Works good for me

Code:

---

#include <iostream>
#include <list>

using namespace std;

template<class T>
void PrintList( const list<T>& l )
{
    list<T>::const_iterator walker = l.begin();

    while( walker != l.end() )
    {
        cout << *walker++ << endl;
    }
}

int main()
{
    list<int> l1;

    l1.push_front(1);
    l1.push_front(2);
    l1.push_front(3);
    l1.push_front(4);

    PrintList(l1);

    list<char *> l2;

    l2.push_front("one");
    l2.push_front("two");
    l2.push_front("three");
    l2.push_front("four");

    PrintList(l2);

    list<char> l3;

    l3.push_front('a');
    l3.push_front('b');
    l3.push_front('c');
    l3.push_front('d');

    PrintList(l3);
}

The reason your original one didn't work is this.

You had this declaration:

Code:

---

void printList(const List<T> &list)

---

What is List? This should be changed to list, then your actual variable should be something other than the type name.

Code:

---

void printList(const list<T> &myList)
