[SOLVED] ISO C++ forbids declaration of ‘linkedStackType’ with no type

I got an error when building my program. The program was working fine for a while before showing this error:
    In file included from truck.cpp:1:
    truck.h:62: error: ISO C++ forbids declaration of ‘linkedStackType’ with no type
    truck.h:62: error: expected ‘;’ before ‘<’ token
    truck.h:63: error: ISO C++ forbids declaration of ‘linkedStackType’ with no type
    truck.h:63: error: expected ‘;’ before ‘<’ token

#include "orderedLinkedList.h"
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

#ifndef TRUCK_H
#define    TRUCK_H

class truck {
public:
    truck();
    // default constructor; number and price are are set to -1 and sold is set
    // to false

    truck(int truckNumber, string typeOfLoading);
    // constructor

    truck(truck &s);
    // copy constructor

    ~truck();
    // destructor

    bool hasCargo ();
    void addItems (string items);

    void unload ();
    void load ();

    int getTruckNumber();
    string getTypeOfLoading();

    bool operator==(const truck &s) const;
    
    bool operator!=(const truck &s) const;

    const truck & operator=(const truck &s);
    
    friend istream & operator>>(istream &in, truck &s);
    
    friend ostream & operator<<(ostream &out, truck &s);
    
    linkedStackType<string> pickupCargo;
    linkedStackType<string> deliveryCargo;

private:
    int truckNumber;
    string typeOfLoading;
    
    orderedLinkedList<string> cargoItems;
    linkedListIterator<string> *cargoIterator;
};

#endif    /* TRUCK_H */

You need to use "[" brackets for your code blocks....

Anyway...   do you include the header for your  "linkedStackType" in there?  It does not look like it unless that is in "orderedLinkedList.h".

Thank you so much. I had so many reciprocal including I thought it was included by linkedList which is included by orderedLinkedList.h. Thanks again.

Please mark the thread as [SOLVED] once it is. Edit your first post (you should also use proper code tags as Allan said).

Don't depend on that type of including.  If your source file depends on a definition, include the header that contains that definition; don't expect some other header to include it for you.   

Related: ensure all your headers are multi-include-safe (with a nice big #ifndef at the top) - I see you doing this in the file you pasted, so good stuff

Yeah I got your point. Thanks a lot.
