output a list<> within a struct

I have a list within a struct like so:
typedef struct{
int parent; //node number
int tDist;

typedef struct{
int destNode; //destination node
int cDist;
}listNode;

listNode lN;

list< listNode > aList;

} heapNode;

I have initiated them like so:

/***create adjacency list***/
for(int j=0;j<N[0];j++){
heapNode hN;
hN.parent = 0; //parent = null
hN.tDist = 999999; //infinity value
adjList.push_back(hN);
}
//sets up the list within each node
for(int j=2;j<N.size();j=j+3){
//N[j],N[j+1],N[j+2] are just bunch of ints
adjList[N[j]].lN.destNode = N[j+1];
adjList[N[j]].lN.cDist = N[j+2];
adjList[N[j]].l.push_back(adjList[j].lN);
}

and I'm trying to print out integers in struct elements of "aList". I am failing miserably and gets some wierd values as output. How should I go about this?
(I would also need the int values within the listNode structs for assignment or comparison later)

THanks

sorry for the typing mistakes

i recommend using the STL's for_each<>().

create a functional object that prints a single node, and run for_each with it (easier to debug)

Thanks Mafalda,
I rearranged so that inner struct is declared before outter struct and it works fine =)
