Error: member function redeclaration not allowed

[silentcoast]

Alright im not sure why but im getting a "member function redeclaration not allowed" error when I to compile this simple program.

main.cpp

#include "main.h"
 
CNetwork net;
 
int main()
{
    int on = 0;
    int command;
 
    while(on == 0)
    {
        printf("press 1 to connect to network, 2 to display socket,3 to exit.");
        cin >> command;
        if(command == 1)
        {
            net.startupClient();
        }//end if startupclient
        if(command == 2)
        {
            net.printSocket(); 
        }//end if printsocket
        else
        {
            on = 1;
        }//end else
    }//end while on
    return 0;
}//end main

    int *mySocket;
};
 
#endif
 

network.cpp

#include "main.h"
 
void CNetwork::startupClient() 
{
    int error;
    WSAData wsaData;
    error = WSAStartup(MAKEWORD(2,2), &wsaData);
    if(error == SOCKET_ERROR)
    {
        printf("Could Not Start Up WinSock!\n");
    }
    printf("WinSocket started\n");
    int mySocket;
    mySocket = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0);
    &mySocket;
    if(mySocket == SOCKET_ERROR)
    {
        printf("Error Opening Socket!\n");
    }
    printf("Socket Opened!\n");
    //shutdownClient(&mySocket); //DEBUG ONLY
 
}//end startnetwork
 
void CNetwork::printSocket();
{
    printf(*mySocket);
}//end printsocket
 
void CNetwork::shutdownClient(int *mySocket)
{
    printf("Closing Socket: %i\n", *mySocket);
    closesocket(*mySocket);
    printf("Socket Closed\n");
}//end shutdownnetwork
 

the function printSocket is wehre im having problems, if i take out that function the program runs like it is suppose to. here is the exact error...


network.cpp(25) : error C2761: 'void CNetwork::printSocket(void)' : member function redeclaration not allowed

Any help would be awsome!

Hi there.

the solution is, syntaz error in your network.cpp

.....
......
void CNetwork::printSocket()
{
    printf(*mySocket);
}//end printsocket
......
......
 

in the line printSockect function, you SHOULDNT have a " ; " in the back. delete it.

i hope i helped.

ok I took it out now i get

visual studio 2005\projects\aumudin2\aumudin2\network.cpp(25) : error C2761: 'void CNetwork::printSocket(void)' : member function redeclaration not allowed

visual studio 2005\projects\aumudin2\aumudin2\network.cpp(26) : error C2447: '{' : missing function header (old-style formal list?)

visual studio 2005\projects\aumudin2\aumudin2\network.cpp(25) : error C2761: 'void CNetwork::printSocket(void)' : member function redeclaration not allowed

visual studio 2005\projects\aumudin2\aumudin2\network.cpp(26) : error C2447: '{' : missing function header (old-style formal list?)

after I fixed the missing ; problem identified by nickyeng I got an error indicating a missing conversion specification in the printf call in printSocket(). I fixed it so

void CNetwork::printSocket()
{
    printf("*mySocket\n",  *mySocket);  //*** ????
}//end printsocket
 

it now compiles OK
