The code works, that isn't the issue. I run into trouble with the fact that theres a private nested class there. I am aware that I cannot have any initial values in the function heads in the source file and that I need scope specifiers (hashTable:: ) in front of the functions and (hashTable::hashItem:: ) in front of the nested class's functions, but aside from that I really don't know... perhaps a good tutorial would be helpful...

Now that you posted the code that works, post the code that doesn't work and also a few of the compiler errors.

here is what I think should be the header file, hash.h

#ifndef HASH_H
#define HASH_H

#include <vector>
#include <string>

class hashTable {

 public:

  hashTable(int size = 0);

  int insert(const std::string &key, void *pv = NULL);

  bool contains(const std::string &key);

  void *getPointer(const std::string &key, bool *b = NULL);

  bool remove(const std::string &key);
  
  std::string strToLow(std::string str);
	
 private:

  class hashItem {
  public:
	hashItem(const string &k = "", void *pt = NULL);
    std::string key;
    bool isOccupied;
    bool isDeleted;
    void *pv;

	std::string getKey();
	bool occupied();
	bool deleted();
	void* getPt();
	void setKey(std::string str);
	void setDel(bool x);
	void setOcc(bool x);
	void setPt(void *r);
  };

  int capacity; // The current capacity of the hash table.
  int filled;  // Number of occupied items in the table.

  std::vector<hashItem> data; // The actual entries are here.

  int hash(const std::string &key);

  int findPos(const std::string &key);

  bool rehash();

 
  static unsigned int getPrime(int size);

thanks again

Several similar errors. Since you are not using using namespace std; then you need to specify std:: namespace wherever STL objects are declared, such as in the hashItem class hashItem(const std::string &k, void *pt = NULL); >>static unsigned int hashTable::getPrime(int size
Remove the static keyword in the implementation file. Its only used in the header file.

>>int primes [21] = {3, 11, 17, 37, 67, 131, 257, 521, 1031, 2053, 4099, 8209, 16411, 32771, 65537, 131101, 262147, 524309, 1048583, 2097169};

Move that line from the header file to the *.cpp implementation file. In the header file just put this: extern int primes[];
