C++ classes with members referencing each other
- by Saad Imran.
I'm trying to write 2 classes with members that reference each other. I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or it's just not possible. Can anyone help me out here...
Source.cpp
#include "Headers.h"
using namespace std;
void main()
{
Network* network = new Network();
system("pause");
return;
}
Headers.h
#ifndef Headers_h
#define Headers_h
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include "Network.h"
#include "Router.h"
#endif
Network.h
#include "Headers.h"
class Network
{
protected:
vector<Router> Routers;
};
Router.h
#include "Headers.h"
class Router
{
protected:
Network* network;
public:
};
The errors I'm getting are:
error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '<'
error C2238: unexpected token(s) preceding ';'
error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed.
I'm pretty sure I'm not missing any semicolons or stuff like that. The program works find if I take out one of the members. I tried finding similar questions and the solution was to use pointers, but that's what I'm doing and it does't seem to be working!
