Hello there,

Im new in C++ programming, and i ve some troubles that ive never seen in other languages.

I ve two classes, and each one has a pointer to the other:

class C1{
public: C2* pointerC2;

}

class C2{
public: C1* pointerC1;
}

Well, the compiler cannot parse it, i think its cause C2 is not visible for C1 in compiling time. In fact, for C1, C2 its not yet declare.

What can i do, please?

Thank you, and excuse my very bad english.

Use a forward declaration.

[FONT="Fixedsys"][COLOR="Blue"]class C2; // forward declaration[/COLOR]

class C1{

public: C2* pointerC2;


}[COLOR="Red"];[/COLOR]


class C2{

public: C1* pointerC1;

}[COLOR="Red"];[/COLOR][/FONT]
