Debugging multiple GDB files

Question

I am debugging a C++ code which is divided into multiple files. The code which I am debugging has 6 errors in total, both syntax and logical. I have found one error but I could not figure out a way to solve the rest. I have referred to multiple online sources including but not limited to YouTube (Bucky C++), Tutorial's Point, Geeks for Geeks and more.

My code is in this link.

Any help here would be greatly appreciated!

before to debug you need to compile, and you code cannot be compiled because of the errors it contains — bruno, Feb 24 '19 at 21:23
Forget YouTube and tutorials. Get yourself [a proper book](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/388242/the-definitive-c-book-guide-and-list) to learn the language and how to develop software with it — Lightness Races in Orbit, Feb 24 '19 at 21:23
Always solve syntax errors one by one. First error is pretty undestandable: `error: ‘class billType’ has no member named ‘setRoomRent’`. — Yksisarvinen, Feb 24 '19 at 21:23
I've got to say, though, that first error is pretty clear. What about it are you struggling with? — Lightness Races in Orbit, Feb 24 '19 at 21:24
Can you see something about your `setDisDate` definition that differs from all the others in that file? — Lightness Races in Orbit, Feb 24 '19 at 21:25
By the way, for future reference that website is confusingly named. These are not "GDB files" and that is not GDB. It is an online tool/IDE/debugger combo that probably invokes GDB at some point down the line (post-compilation) but it is not itself GDB. — Lightness Races in Orbit, Feb 24 '19 at 21:27
@GeorgeAnderson you just have to add the declaration of setRoomRent and to add a missing prefix for setDisDate, see my answer — bruno, Feb 24 '19 at 21:33
I'm sorry but "I'm struggling" isn't actionable intelligence; you need to tell us specifically what the problem is otherwise we cannot help you with it. — Lightness Races in Orbit, Feb 24 '19 at 21:40
@bruno It still didn't solve the issue. Now, I am getting a different error. — George Anderson, Feb 24 '19 at 21:41
@GeorgeAnderson the link is not updated with your new version — bruno, Feb 24 '19 at 21:44
@GeorgeAnderson I edited my answer, but is a trivial error, you do not understand compiler error ? — bruno, Feb 24 '19 at 21:51
@GeorgeAnderson ok, but you need to understand compiler/link errors, sorry but these errors was simple ... and me I need to sleep ^^ — bruno, Feb 24 '19 at 22:03
@bruno, yes I understand. My teacher vaguely explains the concept, which is why many students are looking for other resources. I appreciate your help! — George Anderson, Feb 24 '19 at 22:11

In billType.h add declaration of operation void setRoomRent(double charges);

In patientTypeImp.cpp replace void setDisDate(int disDay, int disMth, int disYear) by void patientType::setDisDate(int disDay, int disMth, int disYear)

after you will be able to compile ... then debug

(about link error after previous error fix)

You missed to define void doctorType::setSpeciality(string), it is only declared

just add the probable definition

void doctorType::setSpeciality(string spl)
{
    speciality = spl;
}
