Been out of C++ for a while, think i've made a stupid mistake with this code....

I've been using java for the last couple of months so i've just recently got back into C++ and I need to make a simple LinkedList class for a project. I believe everything is coded just fine it's just something in my main declared wrong. Here is my main:

Code:

---

#include "Exception.h"
#include "Exception.cpp"

#include "LinkedList.h"
#include "Node.h"
#include "IndexOutOfBounds.h"
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
LinkedList<int> a;


return 0;
}

---

I just went crazy and starting including everything. I even re did my program without templating and it still gave me the same error. The exact error is:

Quote:

---

Main.cpp: In function `int main()':
Main.cpp:12: `LinkedList' undeclared (first use this function)
Main.cpp:12: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
Main.cpp:12: for each function it appears in.)
Main.cpp:12: parse error before `>'

The problem has to be in that bit of code but if you need the other files i can supply that. I have a feeling this is a very stupid problem caused from my time off. Thanks in advance guys. :D

Is that a custom implementation?
Why not just use the stl
#include <list>

post the code for LinkedList.h

Code:

---

// LinkedList.h

#include "Node.h"
#include "IndexOutOfBounds.h"
#include <iostream>

#ifndef LINKED_LIST_H
#define LINKED_LIST_H

namespace DonathList {
  using Donath::IndexOutOfBounds;
  using std::ostream;

  template <class T>
  class LinkedList {
      public:
        LinkedList();

        LinkedList(const LinkedList<T>&);

        virtual ~LinkedList();

        LinkedList<T>& operator=(const LinkedList<T>&);

        T getElementAt(int position) const throw (IndexOutOfBounds);

        T operator[](int position) const throw (IndexOutOfBounds);

        void insert(T element, int position) throw (IndexOutOfBounds);

        void append(T element);
 
        T remove(int position) throw (IndexOutOfBounds);

        // Returns position of element in the list, -1 if not found
        int find(T value) const;

        bool isEmpty() const;

        template<class S>
        friend ostream& operator<< (ostream&, const LinkedList<S>&);

      private:
        Node<T>* head;
  };
}
#endif

I could do that curious but also I want to figure out what went wrong with the code i have.

My guess is you have to qualify the name because it is in a DonathList::LinnkedList

I am not sure if you can simple add
using DonathList::LinkedList as I haven't used my own namespaces before but I bet this is the problem.

Im my experience trying to compile *template class* in MSVC++ 6.0 and .NET, I learned that I had to put the declaration and definition in *one file*.

Thanks bro, you hit the nail on the head. The last thing i remember doing with C++ is user namepaces and I forgot to include my own, doh. Good work man. :D
