Here is the code:

int getFileNumLines(char* file) {
 ifstream in(file);
 if(!in) {
  return 0;
 }
 char* line = new char[MAX_CHARS + 1]; // parse error here
 int numLines = 0;
 in.readLine(line, MAX_CHARS); // parse error here

 while(in) {
  numLines++;
  in.readLine(line, MAX_CHARS); // parse error here
 }

 freeString(line);
 in.close();
 return numLines;
}

I get a parse error on the lines indicated. MAX_CHARS is defined in another
.h file, which is included. Thanks for help on this menial problem.
