各位同仁好：
       在下请教一下关于类的问题。把类的定义和说明放到哪里，在main函数中就可以只用一个头文件就可以调用它们，从而不必在main函数中编写它们的定义和说明。谢谢

我这本教材上没有相关例题。。。我自己编了一个类的程序，麻烦您把详细操作过程告诉我，非常谢谢。
class cashregister
{
public:
    int getcurrentbalance() const;
    void acceptamount(int amount);
    cashregister(int cashin=500);
private:
    int cashonhand;
};

class dispensertype
{
public:
    int getnoofitems() const;
    int getcost() const;
    void makesale();
    dispensertype(int setnoofitems=50, int setcost=50);

    int cost;

    cashonhand+=amount;
}

cashregister::cashregister(int cashin)
{
    if(cashin>=0)
        cashonhand=cashin;
    else
        cashonhand=500;
}

#include <iostream>
#include "dispensertype.h"

void sellproduct(dispensertype& product, cashregister& pcounter)

        }
        else
            cout<<"the amount is not enough."<<"collect what you deposited."<<endl;
        cout<<"*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-"<<endl;
        cout<<endl;
    }
    else
        cout<<"sorry, this item is sold out"<<endl;
}

我的意思是如何让类的说明和定义在main函数中不显示出来，只加上头文件：
#include "cashregister.h"
#include "dispensertype.h"
就能够调用这它们。

请高手指点，谢谢了。我学c++到这，卡这了。。

我把步骤给您说一下，麻烦您看对不对，谢谢。
由于有些截图，所以我放到了wps文档里面。还要多费心你看看对不对。

编译时，还是提示：C:\Documents and Settings\wys\桌面\c++\继承.cpp(3) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'rectangle.h': No such file or directory
我改正了一下，把详细步骤放到wps中了，麻烦您再看一下。谢谢。

类.zip (80.29 KB)

我写的是：#include "rectangle.h"
#include "boxtype.h"
还是没达到目的。。。

十分感谢

继续努力
