Trying to set a class member string with getline

[AL88]

Hi I am trying to build a class of strings so I can experiment with sorting it with std::sort. Why cant i get the setname function to work with getline so i can get the data into the instance. How do i make it work. Thanks.

  #include<iostream>
#include<string>
#include<vector>
#include<algorithm>

using namespace std;

class addressBook
{
	public:
	string Setname(string name) {name = itsName;}
	
	private:
	string itsName;
	string itsStreetNumber;
	string itsTown;
	string itsCounty;
	string itsPostcode;
	
};

int main()
{
	addressBook pageOne;
	cout << "Enter the name.\n";
	getline(cin,pageOne.Setname);
}

getline(cin,pageOne.Setname);

The second parameter should be a string.

pageOne.Setname is not a string. It's a function.

Use a default constructor for this. Example...

#include<iostream>
#include<string>
#include<vector>
#include<algorithm>

using namespace std;

class addressBook
{
public:
	addressBook(); //a default constructor
	string Setname(string name) { name = itsName; }
	string Getname() { return itsName; }

private:
	string itsName;
	string itsStreetNumber;
	string itsTown;
	string itsCounty;
	string itsPostcode;

};

addressBook::addressBook() {
	cout << "Enter the name.\n";
	getline(cin, itsName);
}

int main()
{
	addressBook pageOne;
	
	cout << pageOne.Getname();

	cin.get();
	return 0;
}
