Linking problem in VC++

WHY
The class definition above defines the structure of the class, however you have not defined the actual code that implements the class anywhere.  This is why.  When you call one of the functions in the class, there is no code anywhere to actually implement the functon.

FUNNY NAMES
In case you are wondering the reason the names are listed strangly is because the C++ compiler "mangles" this names with extra characters indicate the type of parameters that the function takes.  For example you have multiple constructors (each of the 3 functions called TPString after public) however each takes different parameters, so they are really different functions.  The linker needs a unique name for each unique function, so the C++ compiler adds the extra characters to the names to make these names unique.

HOW TO FIX
1. You need to define the implementation code for each function that you have in the class,  

i) you can either do this in the body of the class
example (please note the absence of a semi-colon (;) after the function definition)

class TPString
{
   ...etc...
     
   public:
        // Constructors
   TPString()
   {
     // <--- add your code here
   }

   ...etc...

OR

ii) add the code in a separate function body outside the { } enclosing the class

Example

   class TPString
   {
     ...etc...
   } ;

TPString::TPString(  char *aBuf )
{
  // whatever code you want goes here
}
     
ONE FINAL THING
The line beginning "friend" in the class definition defines a global function (called operator+, which can be called by writing a + with the parameters stated) defines a global function which has access to the private data in a TPString.  This global function should also be defined somewhere, something like:

TPString  operator+ (  char* lhs,  TPString& rhs )
{
  TPString str(lhs) ;
  TPString str2 = str + rhs ;
  return str2 ;
}
