Access an object stored in the list.

[cbarmpar]

Hi all,

I am storing some objects in the list and the i am trying to access them one by one. Each object consists of two strings and one integer.

The problem is that i cannot access these objects through the iterator.
1.How can i access these objects?

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <iostream>
#include <map>
#include <list>
using namespace std;


class A{
public:
    string x;
    string y;
    int z;
};

list<A> G_QUERY_LIST;
list<A>::iterator it;


void create_new_query()
{
    string name;
    string query;
    string results;
    cout << "Please enter a name for this query: ";
    cin >> name;
    cout << "Please enter the query you want to execute: ";
    cin >> query;
    A ena;
    ena.x = name;
    ena.y = query;
    G_QUERY_LIST.push_back(ena);
}


int main() {
  create_new_query();
  create_new_query();
  cout << "mylist contains:";
  for (it=G_QUERY_LIST.begin(); it!=G_QUERY_LIST.end(); it++)
  cout<< *it.ena.x;
  cout << endl;

  

  return 0;

}

Many thanks in advance.

I'm no expert on C++ but if your going to push a class A onto a list you have to do it either by passing a reference to it(which you can't do here because your class is create as a automatic variable i.e in a function) or you need to copy your class onto the list which you can't do here because your class has no copy constructor but like I said I'm no expert in C++

Many thanks for the reply friend i think i found the error:

it is (*it).x;

because of the dot we need to put some parenthesis.

try it->x its easier to understand than (*it).x and you really should have a defined constructor/destructors in your class...its easier to understand your intention when your code is spelled out in stead of using the defaults
