Hi iam begginer at c++ i have class with static methods and i cant access them it throws me an error

========== Build: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 up-to-date, 0 skipped ==========

and here is my code

#include <iostream>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

class CPractice
{
    public:
        static void setName(string s)
        {
            name = s;
        }
        static string getName()
        {
            return name;
        }
    private:
        static string name;
};


int main()
{


    CPractice::setName("Name");
    cout << "n" << CPractice::getName();
    system("PAUSE");
    return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

static string name;

As it is static , this line only declares name - you need to define it too. Simply place this below your class definition:

string CPractice::name;

If you end up moving your class to a corresponding header and implementation file, make sure you place this definition in the implementation file. It should only be defined in a single translation unit.

---

你只在类中声明了name ，静态变量需要在类之外定义：

string CPractice::name ="hello" ;

---

Since name is a static data member you should initialize it :) and not count on the default instance related constructor.

Add this after the class definitions (yep, I know its confusing since your member is a private one, but this is only an initialization) :

string CPractice::name;
