Header file

(1/1)

rwaves:
Learning C++ and trying to create a header file to add two intergers.


add.h header file looks like this:

#ifndef ADD_H_INCLUDED
#define ADD_H_INCLUDED

int add(int x, int y);

#endif 


main.cpp source file looks like this:

#include <iostream>
#include "add.h"

int main()
{
  using namespace std; 
  cout << "The sum of 3 and 4 is " << add(3, 4) << endl;
  return 0;
}

Keep getting error:  "In function 'main' undefined reference to 'add(int, int)'. I think my code is OK. Has anyone had trouble with this too? Thank you for your help!!

Nope.  You haven't defined the function, merely declared it.  You won't be able to link an executable without a corresponding definition for the function.

Absolutely unrelated to C::B and therefore violating our forum rules.
