Cant print multimap because of iterator

Question

Hey im trying to print out my multimap values but im getting an error on this

for ( multimap< int, Questions, less< int > >::iterator iterator = question_map.begin();
      iterator != question_map.end(); ++iterator )
      cout << iterator->first << '\t' << iterator->second << '\n';

The error states:

Error   1   error C2679: binary '<<' : no operator found which takes a right-hand operand of type 'Questions' (or there is no acceptable conversion)    c:\users\conor\documents\college\dkit - year 2 - repeat\dkit - year 2 - semester 1 - repeat\games programming\millionaire\millionaire\questions.cpp 31  1   Millionaire

Here is the rest of my code:

Questions.h
#ifndef QUESTIONS_H
#define QUESTIONS_H
#include <string>
#include <algorithm>
#include <map>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

class Questions
{
public:
    Questions();
    Questions(string question,string correctAnswer, string wrongAnswer1,string wrongAnswer2,string wrongAnswer3);
    //void shuffle(string *array, int n);
    //string getQuestion();
    //string getCorrectAnswer();
    //string getAnswers();
    //bool checkAnswer(string answer);
    void questionStore();
    //void addQuestion(int level, Questions question);
    //Questions printQuestion(int level);
    //ostream& operator<<(const ostream& out, const Questions& q);


private:
    string question;
    string correctAnswer;
    string wrongAnswer1;
    string wrongAnswer2;
    string wrongAnswer3;
    multimap<int,Questions> question_map;
};

#endif

Questions.cpp

#include <iostream>
#include "Questions.h"
using namespace std;
Questions :: Questions()
{

}
Questions :: Questions(string question,string correctAnswer, string wrongAnswer1,string wrongAnswer2,string wrongAnswer3)
{
}


void Questions :: questionStore()
{
Questions q1 = Questions("Whats the oldest known city in the world?", "Sparta" , "Tripoli" , "Rome", "Demascus");
Questions q2 = Questions("What sport in the olympics are beards dissallowed?", "Judo", "Table Tennis" , "Volleyball", "Boxing");
Questions q3 = Questions("What does an entomologist study?", "People" , "Rocks" , "Plants", "Insects");

question_map.insert(pair<int,Questions>(1,q1));
question_map.insert(pair<int,Questions>(1,q2));
question_map.insert(pair<int,Questions>(1,q3));

for ( multimap< int, Questions, less< int > >::iterator iterator = question_map.begin();
      iterator != question_map.end(); ++iterator )
      cout << iterator->first << '\t' << iterator->second << '\n';
}

Answer 1

Add operator<< as friend of Qeustions, so it can access private member of Question class.

In Questions.h, declare operator<< as a non-member function

class Questions
{
public:
    Questions();
    Questions(string question,string correctAnswer, string wrongAnswer1,string wrongAnswer2,string wrongAnswer3);
    void questionStore();
private:
    string question;
    string correctAnswer;
    string wrongAnswer1;
    string wrongAnswer2;
    string wrongAnswer3;
    multimap<int,Questions> question_map;

    friend std::ostream& operator<<(std::ostream& stream, Questions const& q);
};

std::ostream& operator<<(std::ostream& stream, Questions const& q);

in Questions.cpp, define operator<< function

std::ostream& operator<<(std::ostream& stream, Questions const& q)
{
    stream << q.question << " " << q.correctAnswer;  
    return stream;
}
