c++ question: no matching function call

[deadbeat]

hi all, i have something like this

abc.h:
class abc {
public:
// constructor destructor yada yada
// note: i did overload the constructor if it helps.
somefunction (char *something);
}

abc.cc
#include "abc.h"
// constructor destructor yada yada
abc::somefunction (char *something)
{
//stuff
}

main.cc
#include "abc.h"
//... then in a function or somethin
abc *mystuff = new abc;
mystuff->somefunction("sometext");
delete mystuff;

and i get:

main.cc:73: no matching function for call to `abc::somefunction (char *&)'

note the function names and what not have been changed to protect the innoce...err just typed this up from my head just to show the relevant parts...

thx

oof, that was a mistake when i just changed the class names to simplify my message. its correct in the actual code. same error :{

Perhaps something got lost in the translation/simplification. When I condense your example into one file, like this:

I sent deadbeat a compilable example that used a similar file topology via PM a day or two ago; hopefully he'll respond back here if anything pops up
