Where and why do I have to put the “template” and “typename” keywords?

I have written:

template<class T> 
typename list<T>::iterator partition(list<T> &, list<T>::iterator, list<T>::iterator);

but my compiller found an error:

error: ‘std::list::iterator’ is not a type

What is wrong with this function?

Answer 1

Try:

 template<class T> 
 typename list<T>::iterator partition(list<T> &, typename list<T>::iterator, typename list<T>::iterator);
