wats wrong with this?

I am writing a cheap ass game that will be played over LAN and hopefully work over the internet. Im having trouble, i cant go through the list and return each items value..im using qt and i am inheriting from class QList as i want each player in the game to have a list of all other players and there attributes,
I want to return items in the following way but its not working:

following is class header:
/* Player is the base class for two class named Player_Evil and Player_Good */

class PlayerList : public QList< Player >{
//class body here
}

following function to return a Player object using IP that is not working

Player* PlayerList::getPlayerInfo( QString ip )const{

foreach( Player p, this ){

if( p.tostringIP( ) == ip ) return &p;

}

return 0; //if not found

}

I get an error when i include this function code I dont know why, I suspect that it might be the 'this' pointer in the foreach loop, I thought i could do that seeing as I am inheriting QList, I have been able to use all of QList's functions with the 'this' pointer...if more code is needed to help solve this please ask

Hello, for those of you that are interested to know i found what the problem was in the program. It was the header of the foreach loop. the 'this' pointer is being used wrong:

it is supposed to be '*this' that the value of the current object.
