Hi, I have the following code from an include file:

template <class Type>
int DArrayAsVector<Type>::operator==(const DArrayAsVector<Type>& other)
{   if (count != other.count)
        return false;
    for (int i = 0; i < count; ++i)
        if (!(get(i) == other.get(i)))
            return false;
    return true;
}

And I get this error message:

d:\develop\dtsearch\include\darray.h(189) : Error: illegal operand types
Had: CUserThesaurusItem
and: CUserThesaurusItem

The template code look syntactically correct to me. But I really don't have a clue what the error might be. Further I didn't found any instantiation of the template with CUserThesaurusItem somewhere in the list file...

Any idea what the problem could be?

To me it looks like your CUserThesaurusItem or whatever the 'get' member
returns is missing an operator.
bool   operator == ( const CUserThesaurusItem & ) const;
(or the ~const version).
