Hi,

The following code works fine:

// main.cpp  
#include "Dog.h"

 
 void details(Dog x){
   cout << x.height << endl;}  
       

int main()
{
    int h,w;
    vector<Dog> vect;
    
    cout << "Please enter 3 dogs measurements: "<< endl;
    for(int i=0; i<3; i++){
        cout <<"\nInput height:" <<endl ;
        cin>> h;
        cout <<"Input weight:" <<endl ;
        cin>> w;
       vect.push_back(Dog(h,w));
        }
    
    sort(vect.begin(), vect.end());
    for_each(vect.begin(), vect.end(), details);

}

The problem is, i want the details() function to be in the Dog class but i do not know how to call the details() function (in the Dog class) when i do it this way..Ive tried the following way:

// main.cpp  
#include "Dog.h"

int main()
{
    int h,w, index=0;
    vector<Dog> vect;
    
    cout << "Please enter 3 dogs measurements: "<< endl;
    for(int i=0; i<3; i++){
        cout <<"\nInput height:" <<endl ;
        cin>> h;
        cout <<"Input weight:" <<endl ;
        cin>> w;
       vect.push_back(Dog(h,w));
        }
    
    sort(vect.begin(), vect.end());
    for_each(vect.begin(), vect.end(),vect[index].details); 

}


// Dog.cpp
#include "Dog.h"

using namespace std;

  Dog::Dog(int aHeight, int aWeight):
     height(aHeight), weight(aWeight){}

void Dog::details(Dog x){
     cout << x.height << endl;}  



// Dog.h

#ifndef Dog_h
#define Dog_h

using namespace std;

class Dog{
      public:
        int  ID, height, weight;
      
      public:   
    Dog(int aHeight, int aWeight); 
    Dog(){};       
    bool operator < (const Dog& d) const {
      return (height < d.height ? true : false ); } // 17.inline methods
    bool operator == (const Dog& d) const {
      return (height == d.height ? true : false );}        
    int getID(){return ID;}    //17. Inline methods..
    void setID(int newID){ID=newID;}
    void details(Dog x);

 }
}

but im getting the following error:

main1.cpp:26: error: no matching function for call to `for_each(__gnu_cxx::__normal_iterator<Dog*, std::vector<Dog, std::allocator<Dog> > >, __gnu_cxx::__normal_iterator<Dog*, std::vector<Dog, std::allocator<Dog> > >, <unknown type>)'

Can someone see wats wrong?
Thanks

In your code:
-On line 29:

Dog::Dog(int aHeight, int aWeight):

I'm not sure on the whole Class::Function thing, but surely you are referencing a function called "Dog" and a class called "Dog", which are the same, which may cause an error.

all im doing here is defining the Dog constructor from the Dog class..

Oh ok. Sorry. I should have kept my...keyboard...shut... :/

no worries :)
