Using Vectors with Qt

I seem to be having an issue using basic vectors in Qt, where I keep getting a compile error. The exact information will be posted below:

Code snippet:

....
#include <QVector>
#include <QString>

QVector<QString> vector;
vector.append("sometext");

Error message:

'vector' does not name a type

This error appears for any piece of code that directly pertains to the created vector, not just the append function. Any insight to what I am doing wrong would be appreciated. The vector exists. I've tested it by initializing all of it's elements using one item and accessing it in other parts of the program.

#include <QVector>
#include <QString>

QVector<QString> vector;
vector.append("sometext");

If this is your real code, then you are doing the append outside of any function, which you can't do in c++, and which will cause the exact compilation error you mentioned:
