Classes!!

[Zej]

having trouble them them!!

this program has no purpose except to teach me about classes (incase you're wondering )

CPlayer Class

// Player.cpp: implementation of the CPlayer class.
//
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
#include "iostream.h"
#include "Player.h"

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// Construction/Destruction
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

CPlayer::CPlayer()
{

}

CPlayer::~CPlayer()
{

}

void CPlayer::jump()
{
	cout << "Player jumped!";
}

Now here is the main part of my code.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

void main()
{
	CPlayer guy;
	guy.jump(); // The guy suppose to JUMP here but he doesn't!!!
}

for some reason this ain't working so could someone spot a mistake in here

I don't spot anything unusual immediately. However without your class declaration I can't be sure. I noticed in your main that you have
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

but in your CPlayer class you have:
#include "iostream.h"

Why?

iostream (without the .h) isn't needed unless you plan on using stl in your project. Either way you should use one or the other.

Using this main

#include <iostream>
#include "Player.h"
using namespace std;

void main()
{
	CPlayer guy;
	guy.jump(); // The guy suppose to JUMP here but he doesn't!!!
}

This Header:

class CPlayer{
public:
	CPlayer();
	~CPlayer();
	void jump();
};

and This CPP:

#include "iostream.h"
#include "Player.h"

CPlayer::CPlayer()
{

}

CPlayer::~CPlayer()
{

}

void CPlayer::jump()
{
	cout << "Player jumped!";
}

It works fine. I get "Player jumped!" on the screen

Thanks CthulhuDragon!! i fogot to include the "player.h" in my main file, so now it works like a charm! .
the reason I used <iostream> is because someone said you can use this too. it works fine both ways now so thanks again!!

I beg to differ on the iostream issue. It isn't part of the STL, but of the Standard C++ Library, which includes the IOStream library, string streams, and STL. I always use the std:: headers, since they are actually better than Microsoft's own one. (Actually, MS hint that you should use the std:: ones).
