I do not understand this c++ error but I need help fixing it

I am trying to write a function that counts the number of words in a given string but I keep getting an error message every time I try to compile the code.

**The error message**: lab4.cpp: In function ‘int NumWords(const string&)’:
lab4.cpp:98:17: error: cannot bind ‘std::basic_istream<char>’ lvalue to ‘std::basic_istream<char>&&’
  while (inSS >> str) {
                 ^

int NumWords(const string& str) {

int count = 0;
istringstream inSS(str);

    count++;

}
return count;

}

//Count the number of characters (not including whitespace) in a string

int NumNonWSCharacters(const string&) {

cout << "f";

}

//Replaces one character with another in a given string

void CharReplace(string&, char, char) {
cout << "FINISH\n";

}

//Prints the menu

char PrintMenu() {
cout << "FINISH\n";

}
