I am trying to overload the << operator to a bag that is a class. 
container is a bag.

class bag;





bags_to_use = 12;

bag container[bags_to_use];  // A declared bag of arrays.



So you have a structure that is an array initialized of 12 containers.

I would think that the correct implementation of overloading the 
operator would be something of the following:

ostream& operator <<(ostream& outs, const bag& container[bags_to_use])
{

stuff I will write later.

}

but I think that I may be wrong?  Is my syntax wrong?



thanks,

Jim
