Thread: function defs outside of a derived class

i have a basic class coord, which contains basic x,y,z and a few functions. derived from that class is target, which has functions that deal with the x,y,z manipulation

i want those functions in target to be declaired outside of the class itself... how do i do that

public Target::void depth_move(int direction)
{
}

or what?

Declared, or defined?

Code:

//declaration in .h file would be
class Target{
public:
       void depth_move(int direction);
}

//definition in .cpp file
void Target::depth_move(int direction)
{
}

Class target is derived from base class coord. Given that x, y, z are private members, then no global functions can access them. Why do you want global functions?
