Please resolve the following gcc compiler error in /usr/include/c++/3.2.3/bits/fstream.tcc

It is the same error with g++ also. I am using the version is

Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.2.3 20030502 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.3-34)

Can you post the code you were trying to compile that included fstream?

This error is in

/usr/include/c++/3.2.3/bits/fstream.tcc:455: [B]syntax error before `this'[B]

on line 455

I have included <fstream> ( /usr/include/c++/3.2.3/fstream) internally which might call fstream.tcc

I am calling </usr/include/c++/3.2.3/fstream> internally which might be calling </usr/include/c++/3.2.3/bits/fstream.tcc> , the error is in </usr/include/c++/3.2.3/bits/fstream.tcc> on line 455

My guess is your error is a brace or a semi-colon missing before the call to that fstream.

Please do not post the same thread in more than one forum. Picking the most relevant forum and posting it once there makes it easier for other members to help you and keeps the discussion all in one place.

often you'll get errors in a system header which is included after one of your own headers, which contains a syntax error. As jtshaw suggested, a missing ; after a function prototype or struct definition is common.
