Error Templating Two Classes

Hello all,

I am trying to impliment my first binary tree and I am having some issues. The exact error I am getting from visual studios is 

 
 
Error	C2143	syntax error: missing ',' before '<'


the error is for line 9 and 12 in Tree.h

Any thoughts on how to fix this???

Thanks in advance

Your headers include each other recursively. You should never do that.
BinaryTree.h doesn't anything from Tree.h, so it doesn't need to include it.

I also see that your headers include sources. That's another thing you should never do.

That worked, now I have runtime errors I have to debug :).
