could you help me to debug?

[nick]

the following code is copy from a file called "abc.cpp"
i can compile it suscessfully, but an error occur when i run it
the error message is
--------------------Configuration: abc - Debug--------------------
Linking...
C:\abc.o(.text+0x59): In function `main':
C:\abc.cpp:14: undefined reference to `abc::abc()'

abc.exe - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)

why?
thanks!

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
class abc{
public:
abc();
void test();
};

void abc::test(){
cout<<"Testing"<<endl;
}

int main(int argc, char *argv[]){
abc a;
a.test();

return 0;
}

The name of your program is the first clue to the error

#include<iostream>

And here's another

You have at least one big problem. You are asking a C++ compilation question
in a group that does not discuss C++. comp.lang.c is dedicated to discussion
of program development in standards-compliant C language, and has nothing to
do with C++

You might try asking your question in comp.lang.c++, which is just down the
hall - second door on the right, just past the water cooler.

Otherwise, you need to ask in a group dedicated to your specific
compiler/operating environment - you'll likely find them in upstairs - four
flights up.

comp.lang.c is a forum for the discussion of the C language. You have
posted a
C++ program. You should ask C++ questions on comp.lang.c++.

<off topic>
as your compiler suggested you have no definition for the function
abc()

Where is the abc ctor defined? Thats exactly what the compiler is asking
you. Since you've decared a ctor, you've told the compiler not to
generate a default ctor, therefore, its looking for your abc::abc()
definition.

By the way, its convention that a struct or class by capitalized in
order to help you identify the type and the instances of the type.

class A
{
public:
A() { }
~A() { }
};

int main()
{
A a;
}

That function should have been declared in the class declaration as

void test() const;

....since its not modifying the instance of that class in any way.
(void test() does not require the presence of the "this" pointer)
