compile error about auto_ptr

[George2]

Hello everyone,


I am confused to read what the compiler says. Could anyone explain what it means?

#include <memory>
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <algorithm>
using namespace std;

int main( ) 
{
	int i = 0;
	
	vector<auto_ptr<int>> vc;
	for (i = 0; i < 5; i ++) // 0 1 2 3 4
	{
		auto_ptr<int> pi (new int(i));
		vc.push_back (pi);
	}

	return 0;
}
