error: expected primary-expression before ‘)’ token

I have tried many times to solve this problem but i got nothing.

The main purpose of this code is saving pair keys (Public and Private) in nested class NslObject::KeyK or NewKeyPair1.

.cpp file

        unsigned long int keyLength = 10;
        //KeyPair ADD(RSA::GenerateKeyPair(keyLength));
        NslObject::KeyK(RSA::GenerateKeyPair(keyLength));
        typedef NslObject::KeyK NewKeyPair1; 
        NewKeyPair1(RSA::GenerateKeyPair(keyLength));

        //NslObject::
        Key OtmanK(NslObject::Get_PublicKey(NewKeyPair1));

    //--------------------------------------------------------





  };

so, the problem in this line in cpp file :

 Key OtmanK(NslObject::Get_PublicKey(NewKeyPair1));

when i tried to compile this project, i got this Error message:

 object.cc:87: error: expected primary-expression before ‘)’ token

please, help me.

when i tried to make a directed call for key class, the other problem was appeared such as :

        unsigned long int keyLength = 10;
        //KeyPair ADD(RSA::GenerateKeyPair(keyLength));
        NslObject::KeyK(RSA::GenerateKeyPair(keyLength));
        typedef NslObject::KeyK NewKeyPair1; 
        NewKeyPair1(RSA::GenerateKeyPair(keyLength));

        //NslObject::
        //Key OtmanK(NewKeyPair1.GetPublicKey());
        std::string message = "othman Alkilany";
        // NslObject::NewKeyPair.GetPrivateKey()
       std::string cypherText = RSA::Encrypt(  message, NewKeyPair1.GetPublicKey());

the Error Message is :

  error: expected primary-expression before ‘.’ token

I guess your issue is in the second line here:

typedef NslObject::KeyK NewKeyPair1; 
NewKeyPair1(RSA::GenerateKeyPair(keyLength));

Resolving the typedef you've essentially written the following:

NslObject::KeyK(RSA::GenerateKeyPair(keyLength));

So you can clearly see you're missing the variable name for this line.

To fix this, name the variable/object:

NewKeyPair1 somekeypair(RSA::GenerateKeyPair(keyLength));

However, I guess you misused the typedef anyway? Did you try to name that NewKeyPair1? Something like this:

NslObject::KeyK NewKeyPair1(RSA::GenerateKeyPair(keyLength));
