Thread: Error messages C3861 and C2084 in user-defined headers

Hi,

I have looked over my code and the message boards and am having problems resolving error messages in my user-defined header files "randcard.h" and "dealer.h".


Code for randcard.h:

Code:

# include <iostream>
using namespace std;

void randcard(int[4][13], int[4][13], int [52], int&, int&, int&, string&, string&);

void randcard(int deckdeck[4][13], int cardcard[4][13], int cardsplayed[52], int& cardd, int& suitrand, int& cardrand, string& suitname, string& cardname)
{
	int slow = 0, shigh = 4;
	int clow = 0, chigh = 13;
	char cardgood = 'n';
	char dupcard;
	int ncard = 1;

	for (int k = 0; k <= 3; k++)
	{
		for (int l = 0; l <= 12; l++)
		{cardcard[k][l]= ncard;
		//cout << "Cardcard[" << k << "][" << l << "]:" << cardcard[k][l] << endl;
		ncard++;
		}}


	do
	{
	suitrand = slow + (double)rand()/(double) RAND_MAX*(shigh - slow);
	cardrand = clow + (double)rand()/(double) RAND_MAX*(chigh - clow);

	//cout << "suit: " << suitrand << "  card: " << cardrand << "  cardcard: " << cardcard[suitrand][cardrand]<< endl;

		dupcard = 'n';

		//cout << "suit: ";
		//cin >> suitrand;

		//cout << "card: ";
		//cin >> cardrand;

	for (int i = 0; i < 52; i++)
	{
		if (cardsplayed[i] == cardcard[suitrand][cardrand])
			dupcard = 'y';
		//if (dupcard == 'y') cout << "DUPLICATE CARD" << endl;
	}

		if (dupcard == 'n')
		{cardsplayed[(cardd)] = cardcard[suitrand][cardrand];

		//cout << "in cardcheck, cardd = " << cardd << endl;
		//cout << "in cardcheck, cardsplayed " << cardsplayed[cardd] << endl;

		cardd = cardd +1;

		//cout << "Cardd: " << cardd << endl;

		cardgood = 'y';

		//cout << "in cardcheck, cardgood = " << cardgood << endl;
		}
	}while (cardgood == 'n');

	//cout << "suitrand: " << suitrand << endl;
	//cout << "cardrand: " << cardrand << endl;

	//Naming suits.
	
	switch(suitrand){
		case 0: 
			suitname = "clubs";
			break;
		case 1: 
			suitname = "diamonds";
			break;
		case 2: 
			suitname = "hearts";
			break;
		case 3: 
			suitname = "spades";
			break;}
	
	//Naming Cards.

	switch(cardrand){
		case 0: 
			cardname = "two";
			break;
		case 1: 
			cardname = "three";
			break;
		case 2: 
			cardname = "four";
			break;
		case 3: 
			cardname = "five";
			break;
		case 4: 
			cardname = "six";
			break;
		case 5: 
			cardname = "seven";
			break;
		case 6: 
			cardname = "eight";
			break;
		case 7: 
			cardname = "nine";
			break;
		case 8: 
			cardname = "ten";
			break;
		case 9: 
			cardname = "jack";
			break;
		case 10: 
			cardname = "queen";
			break;
		case 11: 
			cardname = "king";
			break;
		case 12: 
			cardname = "ace";
			break;}
}

For randcard.h, I get the error "c:\documents and settings\owner\my documents\randcard.h(7) : error C2084: function 'void randcard(int [][13],int [][13],int [],int &,int &,int &,std::string &,std::string &)' already has a body". This is followed by the message " c:\documents and settings\owner\my documents\randcard.h(4) : see previous definition of 'randcard'".


Code for "dealer.h":

Code:

# include <iostream>
# include "randcard.h"

using namespace std;

void dealer (int[4][13], int[4][13], int [52], int, int&, int, string, string, string, string);

void dealer(int deckdeck[4][13], int cardcard[4][13], int playedcards[52], int carddr, int& dealertot, int dace, string suitfirst, string cardfirst, string suittextt, string cardtextt)
{
	int suitnum;
	int cardnum;
	string suittext, cardtext;
	int deck[4][13];
	int card[4][13];
	int cardspl[52];
	int cardd =0;
	

	//Dealer's two cards are shown

	cout << "The dealer's hand:    " << cardfirst << " of " << suitfirst << endl;
	cout << "                  " << cardtextt << " of " << suittextt << endl;
	
	if (dealertot == 21)
		cout << endl << "Dealer blackJack" << endl;

	//Dealer's hand is played, hits on anything less than a 17 as per casino rules

	while (dealertot < 17)
	{
		randcard(deck, card, cardspl, cardd,  suitnum, cardnum, suittext, cardtext);
		cout << "                  " << cardtext << " of " << suittext << endl;
		dealertot = dealertot + deckdeck[suitnum][cardnum];

		if (cardnum == 12)
			dace = dace + 1;

		if (dealertot > 21 && dace > 0)
		{
			dealertot = dealertot - 10;
			dace = dace - 1;
		}
	}
	cout << endl << "Dealer's total:   " << dealertot << endl << endl;
}

For "dealer.h", I get the error message "c:\documents and settings\owner\my documents\dealer.h(31) : error C3861: 'randcard': identifier not found".

How can I resolve these errors?

Thanks,
J

You need to add header include guards to your header file(s).

Thank you. That fixed the problem.
