Undefined reference to function error

Mrcerimo (27)
Hi! When I try to compile this code it gives me this error:
Line: 36, undefined reference to `TextGetcher(std::vector<unsigned char, std::allocator<unsigned char

It's a function that takes a unsigned char vector reference in, when I make it take in same vector in as non reference everything works perfectly.

Heres the code(It's little messy at the moment...):

Are you linking against the compiled GameEngine.cpp?
Mrcerimo (27)
thanks Moschops!
I pretty much cleared out my #include chaos and that fixed my problem thanks for your help :)
