Hey guys I'm having trouble calling a function which has an Enum parameter. I have defined the enum datatype in Private section of the class and then I'm trying to pass that value to function in the main. I'll post the code below.

Pizza.h

#ifndef Pizza_h
#define Pizza_h

class Pizza
{
private:
	enum Size {S,M,L};
	enum Type {R,V,C};
	Size s;
	Type t;

public:
        Pizza ();
		void setSize(Size x);
		void setType(Type y);
        int getSize ();
        int getType();
        void print ();
};

#endif

Functions which I want to pass

void Pizza::setSize (Size x)
{
        Size s = x;
}
void Pizza::setType(Type y)
{
        Type t = y;
}

My main

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include "Pizza.h"
using namespace std;
void main ()
{
enum Size {S,M,L};
enum Type {R,V,C};
Pizza p;
p.print();
Pizza *x = new Pizza;
x->print();
p.setSize(M);<----- ERROR
p.setType®;<----- ERROR
p.print();

}

My main

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include "Pizza.h"
using namespace std;
void main ()
{
enum Size {S,M,L};
enum Type {R,V,C};
Pizza p;
p.print();
Pizza *x = new Pizza;
x->print();
p.setSize(M);<----- ERROR 
p.setType®;<----- ERROR
p.print();

}

Never mind guys, fixed it

Had to declare the enums outside private. How stupid of me.

What's with void main ()? It's int main()!

[theindianhippy]

Not necessarily, void main () works just fine. The only difference is that I don't have to return a value in the end to check if my program works correctly or not.

However I'm not sure, just a beginner at all this. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong

But why am I wrong? I need a reason rather than just telling me that I'm wrong. It's like saying a priest saying that there's a GOD but without any reason.

It's in the standard.

If you use void main() in a course you can expect to lose points. If you use it for a paying job you can expect to lose money.
