Moving from Python to C++ and wrestling with the transition to a compiled language. I'm using Xcode but have had a an identical problem using Netbeans.
I have a very simple project, with a file called "main.cpp" which is the below:
#include <iostream>
class Planet {
int radius, mass, grav_constant;
public:
Planet(int radius, int mass, int grav_constant);
int get_radius() { return radius; };
void set_radius(int new_rad) { radius = new_rad; };
};
using namespace std;
int main()
{
Planet x {1,2,3};
cout << x.get_radius();
return 0;
};
I get the below error:

I have tried changing various architecture settings in the "Build Settings" menu, tried changing the linker but nothing seems to make any difference. Grateful for any suggestions.

Solved by @Biffen, Planet was not declared:
class Planet {
int radius, mass, grav_constant;
public:
Planet(int x, int y, int z) {
radius = x;
mass = y;
grav_constant = z;
};
int get_radius() { return radius; };
void set_radius(int new_rad) { radius = new_rad; };
};
