class std::vector has no member named [closed]

Question

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <vector>

using namespace std;

struct coffeeBean
{   
    string name; 
    string country;
    int strength;
};  

std::vector<coffeeBean> coffee_vec[4];

int main(int argc, char ** argv)
{
    coffee_vec[1].name;
    return 0;
}

When I try to run this code I get 'class std::vector<coffeeBean>' has no member named 'name' I thought we can access the struct this way. Am I doing something wrong?

Answer 1

You are creating an array of four vectors, not a vector with four elements.

In your code, coffee_vec[1] refers to a vector<coffeeBean> object, not a coffeeBean object.
