operator overloading

Ausha (45)
Hi, having trouble with understanding operator overloading, everywhere there is theory explained but where it should be some more precise explanation always is (...).
So my task is, i have class time and need to be able to assign like this, time t,b;t=b; my code

//.h

class Time
{
public:
   Time();
   void setTime(int, int, int);
   Time operator=(const Time&);
   void printTime();

private:
   int hour;  
   int minute;
   int second;
};

//cpp

Time::Time()
{
   hour=minute=second = 0;
}
 
void Time::setTime (int h, int m, int s)
{
  hour = (h>=0 && h <24) ? h : 0;
  minute = (m>=0 && m<60) ? m : 0;
  second = (s>=0 && s<60) ? s : 0;
}
void Time::printTime()
{
   cout << (hour < 10 ? "0" : "")<< hour  <<":"
		<< (minute < 10 ? "0" : "")<< minute <<":"
		<< (second < 10 ? "0" : "")<< second;
}

Time Time::operator=(const Time &right)
 { 
	this->hour=right.hour;
	this->minute=right.minute;
	this->second=right.second;
	return *this;
 }

//main

int main()
{
   Time t, c;
   t.setTime(1, 1, 1);
   c.setTime(2, 2, 2);
   t=c;
   t.printTime();
   cout<<endl;
}


there are more details in this, but everything else is working, except operator; when compiling i get pointed to this in makefile
$(BIN): $(OBJ)
$(CPP) $(LINKOBJ) -o $(BIN) $(LIBS)

Give more information about the compiler errors, your code looks fine.

weird, it suddenly worked; I am using dev c++ and it has some issues. Tried also codeblocks but somehow it doesn't want to work properly as well on win8 :(
I got error - id returned 1 exit status - all the time.
now i didn't change nothing, but opened another project parallel to this one. dev c++ just opens new window and now this one suddenly compiled properly.
