g++ compiler is yelling at me

[flynnwallace]

I am trying to get back into programming as I have been out for 2-3 years now. I am working on a console based address book but when I try to compile it it keeps telling me that their is a parse error before "[". Next it tells me it is confused by earlier errors and bailing out. (If I knew how to take screen shots I would). Does anyone know what the H these to compiler errors mean? (using g++ version 2.95.3)

90% of my parse errors is either because of a missing closing brace, }, or because of a missing semicolon. Check the statements immediately before that for one of those two. If that doesn't work, post the line in question and a few lines before it.

Also check that you haven't left out an include file - I don't use gcc much yet, but VC++ will give you parse errors if it runs into an undefined class - although MS has some really creative definitions of 'undefined'!
