STL list and user defined types
Author
I tried to use a STL list with a struct but the compiler comes up with a lot of errors. Do I have to make an operator == for each type I'm gonna use or how do I get the compiler not to complain? See example app and build log below.

Thanks in advice,

If you want to use list::remove() you'll need to have a comparison operator for your user defined type. If you don't use remove() for the user defined type then list won't require your class to define equality.

How else could I possibly remove an element from the list? Is there any way?

You can use iterators to go through the list and then use erase() instead.
Okey, I'll try that. Thanks a lot!
