    Get time <ctime>:

    This is a pretty easy program but its failing saying:

    Code:
    Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:
    Code:
      "CheapWatch::CheapWatch()", referenced from:
          _main in main.o
    ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64
    clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)


    I am not even sure what this even means.


    Code:
    #include <iostream>
    #include <ctime>
    
    using namespace std;
    
    class CheapWatch {
        
    private:
        int hours;
        int minutes;
        int seconds;
        
    public:
        CheapWatch();
        
        void set_values(int);
        int NumSeconds();
        void LocalTime();
        
        
    };
    
    void CheapWatch::set_values ( int Secs ) {
        hours = Secs / 3600;
        minutes = (Secs % 3600) / 60;
        seconds = Secs % 60;
    }
    
    int CheapWatch::NumSeconds()
    {
        return ((hours * 3600) + (minutes * 60) + seconds); //returns number seconds since midnight to confirm
    }
    
    void CheapWatch::LocalTime()
    {
        time_t now = time(0);
        
        char* t = ctime(&now);
        
        cout<<"The current time is: "<<t<<endl;
    }
    
    
    int main()
    {
        CheapWatch watch;
        int sec;
        
        cout<<"How how many seconds after midnight have passed? "<<endl;
        cin>>sec;
        
        watch.set_values(sec);
        cout<<"You have entered "<<sec<<"Which means"<<watch.NumSeconds()<<"Seconds has passed\n";
        
        cout<<"Your local time is: ";
        watch.LocalTime();
        
    
        return 0;
    }

    You forgot to define the CheapWatch default constructor.

"Finding the smallest program that demonstrates the error" is a powerful debugging tool.
