Hello everyone.. I small snippet about me. This is my first post, and I just decided to start coding in C++ a couple weeks ago, so needless to say, I'm a newbie. I bought a Beginning C++ book to help me with initial concepts. On to the reason for my post.
My compiler (g++) returns two errors when I try to compile this code:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
class Object
{
public:
Object(std::string name);
std::string GetName();
private:
std::string mName;
}
Object::Object(std::string name) {
mName = name;
}
std::string Object::GetName() {
return mName;
}
int main() {
std::string objName = "";
Object obj1("Fred");
objName = obj1.GetName();
std::cout << objName;
return 0;
}And these are the errors:
Line 13 new types may not be defined in a return type
Line 13 return type specification for constructor invalid
I've been staring at this for a couple hours now and have hit a block. Any help would be appreciated, thanks. :D
