List Class Woes

[SkyRender]

This is a simple question. I'm trying to define a list of lists (of type string) in Visual C++. My declaration looks like this:

list<list<string>> my_list;

The compiler doesn't like my declaration. Am I missing something? Does this need to be a list pointer?

 

[chipperMDW]

list<list<string[COLOR=red]>>[/color] my_list;

The token scanner sees that as a right-shift operator. Put a space between them instead:

list<list<string> > my_list;

Yeah, it's stupid. I think I read that it might get changed in a future version of the C++ Standard.

Thanks for your help! My code works great now.
