class method problem

[Corey]

Errors:

22 'Rectangle::Rectangle()' and 'Rectangle::Rectangle()' cannot be
28 'Rectangle::~Rectangle()' and 'Rectangle::~Rectangle()' cannot be
44 parse error at end of input

If I take out the constructor and destructor deffinition it works... But I want them there, and I want to know why it doesn't like that.

As for the input error I have no clue what I did wrong =/


thanks

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

class Rectangle
{
   public:
         Rectangle();
         ~Rectangle();
         void SetLength(int length) { this->itsLength = length;}
         int GetLength() const { return this->itsLength; }
         
         void SetWidth(int width) { itsWidth = width;}
         int GetWidth() const { return itsWidth; }
         
   private:
      int itsLength;
      int itsWidth;
};

Rectangle::Rectangle()
{
    itsWidth = 5;
    itsLength = 10;
}

Rectangle::~Rectangle()
{}
      
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
   Rectangle theRect;
   cout << "theRect is " << theRect.GetLength() << " feet long.\n";
   cout << "theRect is " << theRect.GetWidth() << " feet wide.\n";
   
   theRect.SetLength(20);
   theRect.SetWidth(10);
   
   cout << "theRect is " << theRect.GetLength() << " feet long.\n";
   cout << "theRect is " << theRect.GetWidth() << " feet wide.\n";

  return 0;
}

void SetWidth(int width) { itsWidth = width;)

should be

void SetWidth(int width) { itsWidth = width;}

Thanks, but that just brought out more errors... BTW, does anybody know of a good way in DevC++ to make the {} and () look more distinct?? If I raise the text size its HUGE, and all the other fonts are terrible...

errors:

32 'Rectangle' undeclared(first use this function)
32 parse error before ';' token
33 'theRect' undeclared(first use in this function)

Then you didn't do it right. It compiles without error on DevC++ for me.

Are you using version 4?? I double checked and I did it right, but it won't compile and I'm using version 5 beta...


edit: I installed v4 and it compiled fine...
