I am getting the following the following errors when I try to compile in VS 2010. It is also complaining that string is undefined, which makes no sense, as I clearly included it. I understand what the errors mean, but they don't seem to make any sense:

1>c:\users\jon\documents\visual studio 2010\projects\project 2\project 2\userfactory.cpp(11): error C2146: syntax error : missing ';' before identifier 'profession' 1>c:\users\jon\documents\visual studio 2010\projects\project 2\project 2\userfactory.cpp(11): error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed.

This is my code:

#include "objbase.h" //I found this recommendation while googling, but had the errors prior to adding this.
#include <string>
#include <map>
#include <utility>

class UserFactory {
public:
    class User {
        char gender;
        int id;
    string profession;// line 11
    int zip;
    friend class UserFactory;
};
private:
map<int,User*>* map;

public:
UserFactory() : map(new map<int,User*>()) { }

virtual ~UserFactory(void);

void process(string s) {
    //user id | age | gender | occupation | zip code

}
};

Any help would be appreciated before I rip my hair out!

Thanks!

string is part of the std namespace, so you must refer to it as std::string. The same applies to map.
