Several things about this post make me think you're asking something wrong:

  • Your "C" code includes a template. That's not C. Are you using some extension or something?
  • Your "C++" code includes "public class ..." - the public keyword is misplaced there, and should generate its own warning before the one you point out.
  • Your C++ code includes a List, not a list.


Is this really C and C++ code, respectively? Also, is the error you show the very first error the compiler generates?

You should be able to declare what you did. For example, this:

Code:
#include <list>

class Thing {
    std::list<Thing> stuff;
};

Compiles just fine for me, even with the -Wall, -Wextra and -pedantic flags.

Could you give a short (but full and compilable) example that demonstrates your problem?
