Thread: Can't figure out compiler message so I can move on

Below is a copy of my code but the two error messages are:
1. base class 'Employee' has an incomplete type
2. parse error at input

Plus having trouble figuring out error messages which can't move on until I do.


Here are the requirements - design a base class name Employee and have it keep the following info in member variables:
Employee name
Social Sec # format xxx-xx-xxxx with each digit in 0-9 range
employee number in format of xxx-L with L in range of A-M
Hire date.

add a const. and dest. and other member functions to class. const. should allocate enough memory to hold name.

Next add new class named EmployeePay derived from Employee class with following variables - Annual Pay, Monthly Pay Dependents.

Please help. Even getting solving the current error messages will help me get on with it.

Thanks to all.

The at the end of that line suggests you have a ")" instead of a "}". That could be an issue.
