C++ Beginner - Trouble using classes inside of classes
- by Francisco P.
Hello,
I am working on a college project, where I have to implement a simple Scrabble game.
I have a player class (containing a Score and the player's hand, in the form of a std::string, and a score class (containing a name and numeric (int) score).
One of Player's member-functions is Score getScore(), which returns a Score object for that player. However, I get the following error on compile time:
player.h(27) : error C2146: syntax error : missing ';' before identifier 'getScore'
player.h(27) : error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int
player.h(27) : error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int
player.h(27) : warning C4183: 'getScore': missing return type; assumed to be a member function returning 'int'
player.h(35) : error C2146: syntax error : missing ';' before identifier '_score'
player.h(35) : error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int
player.h(35) : error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int
Here's lines 27 and 35, respectively:
Score getScore(); //defined as public
(...)
Score _score; //defined as private
I get that the compiler is having trouble recognizing Score as a valid type... But why? I have correctly included Score.h at the beginning of player.h:
#include "Score.h"
#include "Deck.h"
#include <string>
I have a default constructor for Score defined in Score.h:
Score(); //score.h
//score.cpp
Score::Score()
{
_name = "";
_points = 0;
}
Any input would be appreciated!
Thanks for your time,
Francisco

As requested, score.h and player.h:
