NH> file:  a.h

NH>      class a_class
NH>      {
NH>           // some stuff
NH>      };

I've modified this by adding:

typedef  class a_class * pa_class;


NH> file:  b.h

NH>      #include "a.h"

I've kept this because I DO want to call a_class member functions.

NH>      class b_class
NH>      {
NH>           a_class * pa_class;     // the first error... why ?

This line then becomes:
              pa_class   mpa_class;        // <-------- #1

NH>           // some other stuff
NH>           public:  b_class(int, a_class *);

Likewise, this becomes:
              public:  b_class(int, mpa_class);

NH>      }

DM> This should all work fine.


It doesn't.  I get three errors (see "#1" above):

pa_class: missing decl-specifiers
syntax_error: missing ';' before identifier mpa_class
mpa_class: missing decl_specifiers


Do you think that the problem is with the compiler and not my code?  
This is something I really doubt but for the life of me I can't figure 
out what's going on here.
