inline function question

[hpy_awad]

I was writing an example from a book of Borland C++. At is wrote as it
is. I found those errors :
Can't have a non-inline function in a local class
Identifier GetX can't have a type qualifier.
Here is the code :
*-----------------

#include <stdio.h>
main (void)
{
enum boolean { false , true };

// This the second method of declaration
struct point
{
int X,Y;
boolean visible;
int GetX2();
};

int point::GetX()
{
int n=9;
return n;
};

return 0;
}

Why are you posting C++ code to comp.lang.c? Why not try
comp.lang.fortran while you're at it?

How old is the book?

Yes. What's your question? What to do? Put the body of the
offending function inside the class definition.

Here is the code :
*-----------------

#include <stdio.h>
main (void)

int main()

{
enum boolean { false , true };

'bool' is now a built-in type. You don't need your 'boolean' any
longer.

// This the second method of declaration
struct point
{
int X,Y;
boolean visible;
int GetX2();
};

int point::GetX()

'point' does NOT have 'GetX' member. You need to have your names
straight. It's either 'GetX2' (as in the class definition) or 'GetX',
then you need to fix the class definition.

{
int n=9;
return n;
};

return 0;
}

Besides, you never use your 'struct point'. So, what's the point
(the pun's intended)?
