asked on
operator overloading question
ok, I will poost my code below. I get these two errors:
(54) : error C2601: '>>' : local function definitions are illegal
(54) : fatal error C1903: unable to recover from previous error(s); stopping compilation
Error executing cl.exe.
These errors begin at the open bracket after this line:
ifstream & operator>> (ifstream& stream, employee& p)

Your operator is defined embedded in the main function. I have not comiled it, but this is definitely a problem. Also, the line employee::employee(); is wrong.

... so it did work :-) Sorry about that. My browser timed out three times, so I resubmitted the comment a number of times.
ASKER
it kinda fixed it, but now inside of the overloaded function, can't figure out how to set values to any of the objects, I was barraged with errors, and can't figure most of them out.
