C++ How to loop through a list of structs and access their properties

Question

I know I can loop through a list of strings like this:

list::iterator Iterator;
 for(Iterator = AllData.begin(); 
   Iterator != AllData.end();         


        

Answer 1

(*Iterator).property1 or Iterator->property1

Answer 2

It's as easy as Iterator->property. Your first attempt is almost correct, it just needs some parentheses due to operator precedence: (*Iterator).property

In order to use for_each, you would have to lift the cout statments into a function or functor like so:

void printData(AllDataType &data)
{
    cout << "\t" + data.property1 + "\n";
    cout << "\t" + data.property2 + "\n";
}

for_each(AllData.begin(), AllData.end(), printData);
