Hi,

I'm porting C++ code with Xcode and I ran into a problem when my code tried to instantiate a class pointer with its subclass. The code looks like this:

class MyClass { --- };

class MySubclass : MyClass { --- };
MyClass *p = new MySubclass(---);

And I got the following errors on the last line above.

error: expected type-specifier before 'MySubclass'
error: cannot convert 'int*' to 'MyClass *' in initialization

error: expected ',' or ';' before 'MySubclass'

It looks OK on the surface, but it isn't testable as it stands, too much is absent. What does --- stand for? And in what code block does the assignment statement reside?
