istream help

**FIXED**

Im trying to pass this istream to my class and into a function, but doesnt work. I get this error.


error:

'void PCall::get(std::istream &)' : overloaded member function not found in 'PCall'


Im just eather tired of missing something small. Anyone wanna point me in the right direction?

PCall class in pcall.h

Code:

---

#include <iostream.h>
class PCall
{
public:
  void get(istream& in);

 };

---

pcall.cpp

Code:

---

#include "pcall.h"
#include <iostream.h>
#include <string>
using std::istream;
using std::ifstream;
using namespace std;

void PCall::get(istream& in)
{
    string currentCall;
    in >> currentCall;
        cout << currentCall << endl;
}

---

main.cpp

Code:

---

  #include "pcall.h"
#include <iostream.h>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
using std::istream;
using std::ifstream;



int main()
{
PCall newCall;
char fileName[16];
    cout << "Enter the input file name: ";
    cin.getline ( fileName,16, '\n' );
    ifstream inFile;
    inFile.open(fileName);
  newCall.get(inFile);

 return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

How about posting your 'real' code. The reason I doubt that is your real code is twofold: there is no class called 'PhoneCall', and elsewhere you are using a variable name without having declared it, which the compiler would flag as an error.

Try to change get() to this:

Code:

---

std::istream& get(std::istream&);

---

I think the OP only hid useless code which is the right thing to do. Oh and by the way, you should use iostream and not iostream.h and 0 is generally prefered (by convention) to EXIT_SUCCESS.

Sorry, I had a million comments on testing code and went thru and try to clean it for forums, should be working now.

iostream.h was my ENITRE problem. I run into this problem EVERY friggin time I use it and I forget and make a post or call a friend. Im getting a tattoo for my arm that says check iostream include
