I have this LS7366.h file and LS7366.cpp that I am building, in which I define the Class LS7366, with the following line:

// in the header LS7366.h
	#if !defined		DSPI_PORT						
	#define			DSPI_PORT	DSPI0	// Default DSPI port = DSPI0		
	#endif								
	#define NON_QUADRATURE	0x00
// and a whole buch of other #define lines ...
	
class	LS7366 {
private:	DSPI_PORT DSPIjack	;
and some more code lines   ;  }

// in the code file LS7366.cpp  -  Class definition
LS7366::LS7366 ( ) { }
void LS7366::begin () 	{	
and some more code lines 	; }
and some more functions defined ...
void LS7366 :: end ( ) 	{
and some more code lines ; }

I took this template from another working Class so I am pretty sure the layout is OK and yet I am getting a compiler error and I cant figure out what the problem may be. What is the compiler means by "implicitely-declared" ? Where is my mistake ? What needs to be done to correct this compiler error ?

LS7366.cpp:7:20: error: definition of implicitly-declared 'LS7366::LS7366()

Thanks

I found the problem. Forgot to include the line:

class	LS7366	{
private:	DSPI_PORT	DSPIjack	;
public:	
LS7366 ( ) ; // Forgot this line in my definition
void	begin ( ) ;
void	end (  ) ;

I got rit of the error. And now I have another type of compiler error to solve. But that will be part of another investigation and probably another posted question. Cheers everyone :!:
