Dear Rooters

Meanwhile I have found the reason for the fatal compiler error,
but I do not understand it. It is caused by the following code:

//   TIter next(fSelections);  <====must be defined here???
   switch (id) {
      case B_REMOVE_TREE:
         TIter next1(fSelections);       <=========error!!
         while ((objstr = (TObjString*)next1())) {
            if (objstr->GetUniqueID() == selection) {
               fSelections->Remove(objstr);
            }
         }
         break;

      case B_REMOVE_ALL:
         TIter next2(fSelections);       <=========error!!
         while ((objstr = (TObjString*)next2())) {
            fSelections->Remove(objstr);
         }
         break;
   }

When I define TIter within the case statements, the compiler
crashes with a fatal error. So, I have to define TIter before
the switch statement. WHY??

Thank you.
Best regards
Christian
