Compiler barfing on struct with map including structure as second

[Jim Langston]

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <map>

struct SSkill
{
std::map< std::string, SSkill >;
float Value;
}

int main ()
{

SSkill Skills;

std::string wait;
std::cin >> wait;
}

Error is:
:\Source\working\console\test.cpp(9) : fatal error C1001: INTERNAL COMPILER
ERROR

How do I go about doing this?

What I want to wind up with is a type of map that allows indentation so to
speak.

Mystic
Unarmed
CombatReflex
HandToHand
UnarmedParry
Dodge
Disarm
Armed
CombatReflex
Swordplay
Hooligan
Artisan
Explosives
Dynamite
Caps (Bullet Shells)
Bomb
Crafting
Grenades
Detonation Blocks
Timer triggers
Sensor triggers
Manual triggers
Using
Trapping
Gathering
Herbology

etc...

I thought what I was trying would be fairly simple. A map with a
std::string as the key (of the skill name) and the Skill class itself as the
value. Then I could go through and check if it had submaps.

I'm pretty sure I can do this with pointers, I.E.
std::map< std::string, SSkill* >;
but why do I have to?

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <map>

struct SSkill
{
std::map< std::string, SSkill >;
float Value;
}

Stupid me. I didn't give the map a name.
std::map< std::string, SSkill > Skills;
fixed it.
