Hi,

How does a compiler resolves names in case a UDT is defined at
multiple places, how does the searching go on ?? In the following
example the struct with a short member is used ?? How is this achieved
?? I know that a complier begins by successively searching enclosing
scopes but I don't know how to code it.
        class yyy
        {
                public:
                class xxx
                {
                        public:
                        struct aaa
                        {
                                long ln;
                        };
                };
        };


class qqq
{
        public:
        class yyy
        {
                public:
                class xxx
                {
                        public:
                        struct aaa
                        {
                                short sh;
                        };
                };
        };

        class zzz
        {
                public:
                class bbb
                {
                        void op1(yyy::xxx::aaa aaa_var);
                };
        };
};

Would help if I could get some suggestions on how to implement it in
C++ (Is there a site that talks of the above ??).

Thanks and Regards,
M Shetty

Please do not do this. I.e. please cross-post if you want your article
to appear in more than one newsgroup, instead of posting separately to
more than one group.

In addition, I think that this post does not concern the standard and
was, therefore, correctly posted to comp.lang.c++.moderated and should
not have been posted here.

I had actually posted in comp.compilers. This is the reply I got -
"The C++ name resolution rules are defined in the C++ standard.  Btter
ask comp.std.c++."
and that's why this post
