Basic Question about OOP

[Das Gurke]

I want to make a little GUI for my game and made so far no use of Object Orientation. I guess I understood the basics but now I am at a sort of dead point.

I divided my source into multiple Files and don't quite get the hang on how to do this with the IrrEventReceiver Class. My Code:

[CPP]

Code: Select all

#include "Irrlicht_Defs.h"
#include "IrrLoadScreen.h"
#include "Bomberman_Defs.h"
#include "Bomberman.h"
#include "INI.h"
#include "Graphics.h"
#include "IrrExtern.h"
#include "IrrEventReceiver.h"

//##############################################################################

class IrrEventReceiver
{
public:
	virtual bool OnEvent(irr::SEvent event)
	{
		if (event.EventType == irr::EET_GUI_EVENT)
		{
			irr::s32 id = event.GUIEvent.Caller->getID();
			irr::gui::IGUIEnvironment* env = IrrDevice->getGUIEnvironment();

            switch(event.GUIEvent.EventType)
            {
			case irr::gui::EGET_BUTTON_CLICKED:
              if (id == 101)
              {

              }
          }
       }
    }
 };

[H]

Code: Select all

#ifndef IRREVENTRECEIVER_H
#define IRREVENTRECEIVER_H

class IrrEventReceiver : public irr::IEventReceiver
{
	public:
		virtual bool OnEvent(irr::SEvent event);
};

#endif IRREVENTRECEIVER_H

Error is:
Class Type redefinition, so I just left the class out in the CPP, leads to different errors.

Hope somebody understands me to point to the correct direction.

Ok learn c++

.cxx

Code: Select all

 #include "Irrlicht_Defs.h"
#include "IrrLoadScreen.h"
#include "Bomberman_Defs.h"
#include "Bomberman.h"
#include "INI.h"
#include "Graphics.h"
#include "IrrExtern.h"
#include "IrrEventReceiver.h"

//##############################################################################
   virtual bool IrrEventReceiver::OnEvent(irr::SEvent event)
   {
      if (event.EventType == irr::EET_GUI_EVENT)
      {
         irr::s32 id = event.GUIEvent.Caller->getID();
         irr::gui::IGUIEnvironment* env = IrrDevice->getGUIEnvironment();

            switch(event.GUIEvent.EventType)
            {
         case irr::gui::EGET_BUTTON_CLICKED:
              if (id == 101)
              {

              }
          }
       }
    }

.h

Code: Select all

the header was right

[Das Gurke]

Mhm, not quite

Code: Select all

.\bomberman\IrrEventReceiver.cpp(13) : error C2723: 'IrrEventReceiver::OnEvent' : 'virtual' storage-class specifier illegal on function definition

Guess I really should start off with OOP

Or just do what the compiler tells you and test again. So remove the virtual in front of the method and it should work. But yes, without knowledge of C++ you're damn lost here.

sry forgot to remove the virtual..... while telling u to learn c++
