C++ Classes

Not compiling correctly. Keeps throwing me LNK2019 errors.
Thanks for the help :)

	double balance;

	~Account();

	void withdraw(double amount);
	double getBalance();

where is the implementation of void makeDeposite(Account &) and void withdraw(Account &)??

[tonester]

from what I understand, both prototypes connect to my classes functions. Please correct me if I am wrong.

To access a object's function you must use a '.' (or a -> for a pointer to an object). ex:

Account savings;
savings.makeDeposit(savings);

you're defining a function in the main file that has the same name as a function from Account class. This is ok, but you must give the function a body. Please note this isn't needed to access the object's functions.

anyone please correct me if I'm wrong.

if you're trying to use the object's functions to deposit, do this:

Account account;
double newDeposit;

if(input == 'C')
{

cin >> newDeposit;

account.makeDeposit(newDeposit);
}

kong288 is right.

lines 53 and 54 shouldn't be there. These function declarations mask the real errors. (They lead the compiler to expect global functions, which is what the linker will be complaining about.)

void makeDeposit(Account &);
void withdraw(Account &);

Which is that, on line 72 and t4, you should be calling you class' methods through an instance with the . (dot) operator. As your instance is called savings, e.g.

savings.makeDeposit(newDeposit);
