首先， 开门见山， 这个难题的解决办法是用this指针， 或者使用父类配合着scope resolution。 这个问题是我在学习linked list as an ADT , linked list 是含有纯虚函数， 所以是抽象基础类。 然后又linked list 继承出unordered linked list。 注意， 还可以

}编译结果error message 如下：
错误分析： 按照标准看， 上述的错误似乎有点问题。 因为first， last， count 都是父类的成员变量。 存取类型是protected。 我们的子类unorderedLinkedList 类是公开方式（public）继承linkedList。按说子类即unorderedLinkedList 的成员函数（虚函数）当然可以access 父类的protected 成员变量。 但是在这里出错了。 为什么呢？
立即学习“C++免费学习笔记（深入）”；
原因是我们这里是模板类之间的继承。 如果是正常的普通类之间的继承， 结果一定是没有问题的。 当然access会通过， 编译会okay。 但是这里是模本类之间的继承。
在这里， 我们需要使用this 指针， 也可以使用scope resolution解决模板类之间的继承时变量访问的问题。 下面我们修改unorderedLinkedList.h 如下：
将模板成员函数定义count， first， last 分别用this -> count, this -> first, this -> last（第二中解决办法是换为linkedListType

编译通过， 运行结果如下：
关于这个模板继承， 子类使用父类的成员是使用this， 或者scope resolution， 解释如下：
//To make the code valid either use this->f(), or Base::f(). Using the -fpermissive flag will also
//let the compiler accept the code, by marking all function calls for which no declaration is visible
//at the time of definition of the template for later lookup at instantiation time, as if it were a
//dependent call. We do not recommend using -fpermissive to work around invalid code, and it will also
//only catch cases where functions in base classes are called, not where variables in base classes are
//used (as in the example above).
//
//Note that some compilers (including G++ versions prior to 3.4) get these examples wrong and accept above
//code without an error. Those compilers do not implement two-stage name lookup correctly.
