SDL problem

1) STL not SDL

2) If your list contains pointers to the s_Particle class, just dereference the iterator [ *i ]. If it contains just normal instances of the s_Particle class, dereference the pointer and use the address operator to pass it as a pointer [ &(*i) ].

As porthios asserted, think of a list iterator as a pointer to the templated type in the list.

list<s_Particle> particleList;
list<s_Particle>::iterator i;

for(i=particleList.begin(); i!=particleList.end(); i++)
{
     updateParticle(  (*i)  );
     
}

although if i were you (and i'm not...), i'd do this instead

list<s_Particle> particleList;
list<s_Particle>::iterator i;

for(i=particleList.begin(); i!=particleList.end(); i++)
{
     (*i)->Update();
     
}

Thanks for the replies, lol I didn''t realize I wrote SDL what was i thinking

Also you should get into the habbit of preincrementing with STL wherever possible instead of post incrementing as it is more efficient with STL.
