[Dev-C++] typedef for a class

[Pierre R. <pie...@wa...>]

Hello,

I'm using Dev-Cpp 4.9.7.0, GCC 3.2, MingW 2.0.0.3, Msys 1.0.7, under =
Windows Me.

I'd like to use a new type of smart pointer but without changing all the =
reference in the code. I try the code below:

- in a header file cptr.h, I have:

template < class T > =20
class CPtr    //   Counted Pointer =20
{ =20
[...]
};    //   CPtr=20

- and in an other file, I put:

[...]
#include <string>
#include "include/cptr.h"       // smart pointer CPtr

[...]
using std::string ;

typedef CPtr smart_ptr ;
//#define smart_ptr CPtr
typedef smart_ptr< string > StringPtr ;

[...]

The compiler gives a "syntax error before ;" for the line "define CPtr =
smart_ptr;".
Everything is OK if I use "#define CPtr smart_ptr".=20

I don't see where is the point with this error? Any idea?

Thanks
