c++ struct not recognized

Im trying to process an array of structs but im recieving this error when accessing members: "must have class/struct/union"

struct person
{ int a; int b; int c;

}

person myArray[10];

int main()
{
 for(var i = 0; i < 10; i++)
 {
   //Assume that connection string already established
   outdata<< myArray[i].a << myArray[i].b << myArray[i].c << endl;//Error occurs here when accessing the members within my array of structs
 }
 return 0;
}

Please advise.

1st correction:

   struct person
    { int a; int b; int c;

    } myArray[10];

2nd correction:

for(var i = 0; i < 10; i++)

var is not suported in c++. Instead you can use auto if you are running in VS2010 or above. Or else you will have to use int

You should do

struct person
{ int a; int b; int c;

} ;
  ^^^^

person myArray[10];

or

struct person
{ int a; int b; int c;

} myArray[10];

In the first case you defining a new type "person" (terminated by semocolon) and then declaring an array "myArray" of this new type "person".

In the second case you combine type declaration and variable definition which is allowed for C/C++.

struct person { int a; int b; int c;  } ;
                                       ^^^^

You missed the ;.
