Thread: help with errors...

Im getting a lot of errors in this program and i don't know why? also, why did these errors create a problem?

a) line 5 parse error before `{'
b) line 10 parse error bofore `int'
c) `month' was not declarde in the scope
d) ANSI C++ forbids declaration `setNum2' with no type
e) line 15 ANSI C++ forbids declaration `aYear' with no type
f) line 15 `year' was not declared in this scope
g) line 16 parse error before `}'
h) line 18 implicit declaration of function `int getNum1(...)'
i) line 18 implicit declaration of function `int getNum2(...)'
j) line 19 parse error before `<'
k) line 26 variable `class Date HeidiKlum' has initializer but incomplete type
l) line 29 parse error before `<'
and finally..............
M!) line 31 parse error before `<'

Thanks for the help!

*******LOOK BELOW FOR NEW CODE *********

post the updated code so we dont have to go through and mess with the errors you've solved, please. BTW, is everything correct in "pair.h"?

PS: Thanks for trying to use code tags! But you use them like this:

code goes here...

[/codep]

except take the p out-I put it in there so it wouldnt get parsed.
Good Luck!

[Code for main proggie:]

Code:

#include <string.h>
#include <iostream.h>
#include "pair.h"

class Date : public Pair {
      public:
             int getYear () {
                 return aYear;
             }
             Date (int day, int month, int year) {
             // set attributes of pair
             setNum1 (day);
             setNum2 (month);
             // set new attribute
             aYear = year;
             }
             void output () {
                  cout << getNum1 () << "." << getNum2 () << "."
                       << aYear << endl;
                  }
             private:
                     int aYear; // the year
             };

main () {
     Date HeidiKlum (4,8,1976); // the constructor
     HeidiKlum.output ();
     cout << "the contents of aYear is for Heidi is" << " "
          << HeidiKlum.getYear () << endl;
};

[Code for pair.h file:]

Code:

// pair.h file
#ifndef PAIR_H__
#define PAIR_H__

class Pair {
      public:
		Pair (int num1, int num2);
		Pair ();
		void output ();
		void setNum1 (int num);
		void setNum2 (int num);

      private:
              	int aNum1;
              	int aNum2;
      };

#endif

it appears as if you haven't declared or defined getNum1 or getNum2 anywhere in your code, but then again I'm getting kind of blind...
