Thread: #Include "class" problems

Hello to you all!

I have I problem with a project of mine, it occures when I want to include a class that I have made...

Looks something like this
//Class to include
Class Adventure
{
public:
void happenOnRoll();
void monsterMeeting();
void findItem();
void findGold();
private:
}a;
// end of class definition

I don´t have to have this in a class, but I placed it there to save some room in the main file..

Ok! now when I include this file to my main.cpp file, everything is ok. But when I call for a function ex. a.happenOnRoll(), the compiler starts to complain...
It says something like this:
void __thiscall Adventure::happenOnRoll(void)

I really hope that someone can help me on this, Thanx

Thanx for trying to help, but I have tried that and it doesent make a different if I do or not..
This is the .cpp file to the above header file, if it helps

#include <iostream>
#include <ctime>
using namespace std;
#include "Adventure.h"

void Adventure::happenOnRoll()
{
int rndSeed = 4;
int randAction;

randAction = random(rndSeed);

switch (randAction)
{
case 1:
monsterMeeting();
break;

case 2:
itemFind();
break;

case 3:
goldFind();
break;
}
}

// Function that randomizes a number between 1 and RND_MAX
int Adventure::random(int RND_MAX)
{
unsigned int rndNum;
rndNum = 1 + rand() % RND_MAX;
return rndNum;
}

void Adventure::monsterMeeting()
{
// just putting out text for the moment
cout << "You see a horrid creature coming at you" << endl;
}

void Adventure::itemFind()
{
// just putting out text for the moment
cout << "You have found an item" << endl;
}

void Adventure::goldFind()
{
// just putting out text for the moment
cout << "You have found some gold" << endl;
}

Hmm maybe I missled you by not printing both the .h and the .cpp file directly after one nother, but I include a file named Adventure.h, to a file named Adventure.cpp, where I have my methods.

And sorry about that but I forgot to write that I use as u did write.
#ifndef ADVENTURE_H
#define ADVENTURE_H

"class definition"

#endif

I am really sorry about that, I accidentally wrote a C instead of c in the message.
The strange thing is that I have another class that I include to the main file, and it works as it should, so I dont really understand why I cant get this to work...

This is my other header file that works after being included:

#ifndef CHARACTER_H
#define CHARACTER_H

const int CH_MAX = 30;
class Character
{
public:
Character()
{
x = 5;y = 5;
strcpy(name,"Unnamed");
strcpy(gender,"Unknown");
}
~Character(){}
// set Functions
void setXcoord(int xc){ x = xc; }
void setYcoord(int yc){ y = yc; }

// get Functions
int getXcoord(){ return x; }
int getYcoord(){ return y; }

// other
void walking();

char name[CH_MAX];
char gender[CH_MAX];
private:
int x,y;

}c;

#endif

why do you want to use a class when these functions have no common data to operate on. A more sensible idea maybe is to wrap those functions up in a namespace instead.

Maybe I should, though im not that familiar with namespaces. May be you no of a good place to learn about it Thanx.

But that wasent my question I know that it isnt good to have those functions in a class, but it should work anyway, and I wanted to know why I cant use the header file after I have included it...

maybe you needed to extern your a object.

I have tried it, but it doesent help. I will have to try and solve this myselfe it looks like, but if you do find out what the wrong is, I would highly apriciate if you print it here for me....
Read all my messages to get some understanding of what I am doing, or what I want to do =)

unresolved external symbol "public: void __thiscall Adventure::happenOnRoll(void)

Im really sorry to say but it doesent, but I know that it is something wrong with this header file, because I include another one to my main file, and that one works. But I cant see why the later one wont work.
