c++ header and cpp file code example

Example 1: defining class in other file in c++

//ClassOne.hpp:

class ClassOne
{
public:
  ClassOne(); // note, no function body        
  int method(); // no body here either
private:
  int member;
};
//ClassOne.cpp:

#include "ClassOne.hpp"

// implementation of constructor
ClassOne::ClassOne()
 :member(0)
{}

// implementation of "method"
int ClassOne::method()
{
  return member++;
}
//main.cpp:

#include "ClassOne.hpp" // Bring the ClassOne declaration into "view" of the compiler

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
  ClassOne c1;
  c1.method();

  return 0;
}

Example 2: what is a header in c++

// my_program.cpp
#include "my_class.h"

using namespace N;

int main()
{
    my_class mc;
    mc.do_something();
    return 0;
}

Example 3: c++ header files example

//headers 
#ifndef TOOLS_hpp 
#define TOOLS_hpp
#include<vector> 
#include<iostream>
#include<fstream>
#include<string>
using std::ifstream;
using std::cout; 
using std::cin;
using std::endl;
using std::cerr;
using std::vector;
using std::string;
// functions prototypes 
inline vector<int> merge(const vector<int>&a,const vector<int>& b);//merge function prototype with Formal Parameters 
std::vector<int> sort(size_t start, size_t length, const std::vector<int>& vec);//sort function prototype with formal parameters 
#endif

Example 4: including cpp header file in c++

#include "enter_name_here.cpp"

//Make sure the files are in the same directory.
