"->" is treated as "." in C++

[AdityaPrakash-26]

🐛 Bug Report

Even though I have saved the file multiple times, and using the -> to access the property of a pointer(using C++), the extension converts it to . and passes it to the judge. See the error statement

To Reproduce

I wrote the code:

for(int i = 0; i<n; i++){
    t1 = t1->next; 
}

and got the following error:

Line 27: Char 14: error: member reference type 'ListNode *' is a pointer; did you mean to use '->'?
Line 27: Char 14: error: member reference type 'ListNode *' is a pointer; did you mean to use '->'?
        t1=t1.next;
           ~~^
             ->

Expected behavior

The code should have been submitted properly, instead I am getting an unexpected compile error.
