ERRORs: names the constructor not the type & can't resolve address of overloaded function !!!

[engmeshmesh1]

Hello experts,

How r u ? Kindly, I've a problem regarding the default constructors (as I believe). The errors which I get are:

1) ‘CElement::CElement’ names the constructor, not the type
2) statement cannot resolve address of overloaded function
3) make: *** [src/5_XML_Parser.o] Error 1


I've created the class diagram & sequence diagram using Borland together, then I've copied the generated header files into eclipse, then started to implement the abstract's constructor with cout statemnet as a test, the code ...

** Please, any suggestions, help or recommendation for solving these errors is very appreciated ?

** Also, a quick question: is it mandatory to create CNode.cpp for the CNode.h (the base class) ?? ... [I've already created it "CNode.cpp"]


Thank you in advance :)

1) ‘CElement::CElement’ names the constructor, not the type

int main()
{
  CElement::CElement elemnetObject; // error 1
}

Compiler expects a typename before the name of variable. CElement should be a typename in this context.

However, you do define an enum with valuename CElement too. That is an unnecessary ambiguity.

@Keskiverto:

Thanks a lot, that works well :D I'm grateful for u

** The modification I did is: changing the names of enum's elements...
