when I have the following member in a class
employee headOfDepartment;
what's wrong these setters and getters?
void department::setHeadOfDepartment( employee depEmployee)
{
headOfDepartment=depEmployee;
}
employee department::getHeadOfDepartment()
{
return headOfDepartment;
}
I've been trying forever to define setters & getters with composition and it keeps getting me this error: "field ‘headOfDepartment’ has incomplete type"
ok Those are the header files:
