Hi everyone,

A couple of questions, please. 1) In my Airports class I am trying to get input data from a text file and put it inside the variables of an airport object that I'm going to create. 2) Then I'm going to try and store my Airport objects inside a map container with a key being the Airport code. This is what it looks like so far.

This is my header file:

#ifndef AIRPORTS_
#define AIRPORTS_
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <vector>
#include <sstream>
#include <iterator>
#include <map>
#include"Flights.h"
using namespace std;

class Airports{


 std::istream& operator (std::istream&, Airport::Airport&);
 
   };
 
 #endif /*AIRPORTS_*/

this is the CPP file:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include "Airports.h"
      
     
      
    istream& Airports:: operator (istream& ins, Airport::Airports:: Airport& airport ){
  
  // Notice how this operator does not need to be 'friend' to Airport
  string s;
  int h, m;

  // Get Flight Code
  ins >> s;
  airport.setCode( s );

  // Get scheduled arrival time
  ins >> h;
  if (ins.get() != ':')
    {
    ins.setstate( ios::badbit );
    return ins;
    }
  ins >> m;
  airport.setMinimumConnect( (double)(h % 24) + (m / 60.0) );

  // Get the description for humans
  ins >> ws;
  getline( ins, s );
  airport.setDescription( s );

  return ins;
  } 
   
      
   // This is where the list of airline flight data is stored using airport code (to access airport information) 
map<Airport::Airport> airport_flights;
map<Airport,string> mymap;
  map<Airport,string>::iterator it;

// How many data do we need to read?
int num_flights;
cin >> num_flights;
cin.ignore( std::numeric_limits <std::streamsize> ::max(), '\n' );

// Read exactly that many
copy_n(
  std::istream_iterator <Airport::Airport> ( cin ),
  num_flights,
  std::back_insert_iterator <Airport::Airport> ( airport_flights )
  );

the above code doesn't compile.
these are the classes that the Airports class is using. the code below does compile and works:

#include "Flights.h"

Please flag each file with its exact file name. Two, some of these errors don't match the line numbers. Please make sure the line numbers you've listed correspond to the error message or point us to the REAL line number from where you've posted. Example:

42 C:\Documents and Settings\mugjy001\Desktop\Dev c++ ass3\Airports.cpp expected constructor, destructor, or type conversion before '>>' token

Is this error in line 42? Here is line 42 of Airports.cpp that you posted.

// How many data do we need to read?

That can't be the error. It's a comment. Please provide accurate line numbers for the errors. Thanks.

I am really very sorry, the editor i am using isnt providing line numbers but here is the best i can do:

Well, for this error:

std::istream& operator (std::istream&, Airport::Airport&);

what is the operator? For example, if you are defining the << operator, it would be something like this, I think (it's been a while since I've defined operator functions):

std::istream& operator << (std::istream&, Airport::Airport&);

Anyway, you have to define somewhere what operator you are referring to.

In this code:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include "Airports.h"
      
     
      
    istream& Airports:: operator (istream& ins, Airport::Airports:: Airport& airport ){
  
  // Notice how this operator does not need to be 'friend' to Airport
  string s;
  int h, m;

  // Get Flight Code
  ins >> s;
  airport.setCode( s );

  // Get scheduled arrival time
  ins >> h;
  if (ins.get() != ':')
    {
    ins.setstate( ios::badbit );
    return ins;
    }
  ins >> m;
  airport.setMinimumConnect( (double)(h % 24) + (m / 60.0) );

  // Get the description for humans
  ins >> ws;
  getline( ins, s );
  airport.setDescription( s );

  return ins;
  } 
   
      
   // This is where the list of airline flight data is stored using airport code (to access airport information) 
map<Airport::Airport> airport_flights;
map<Airport,string> mymap;
  map<Airport,string>::iterator it;

// How many data do we need to read?
int num_flights;
cin >> num_flights;
cin.ignore( std::numeric_limits <std::streamsize> ::max(), '\n' );

// Read exactly that many
copy_n(
  std::istream_iterator <Airport::Airport> ( cin ),
  num_flights,
  std::back_insert_iterator <Airport::Airport> ( airport_flights )
  );

it looks to me like your function ends in line 33. Everything after that is just floating around and isn't inside any function. It seems like you should have gotten even more errors than you did, unless I'm missing something.
