The foolwoing codes produces, errors by where i have the classes
Payment
credit : payment
cheque : payment
cash : payment
yet when i cast the payment pointer to one of the child classes, that pointer is not able to access the child classes methods.
main
Payment * p = iter->theirOrders.getPaymentPointer(); //retuns an address to the pointer
if( p != NULL)
{
if ( p->getPaymentType() == "Cash")
{
//nothing to write
}
if ( p->getPaymentType() == "Credit Card")
{
customerListFile << "Card Number: " << p->getAccountNumber();
customerListFile << "Expiry Date: " << p->getExpDate();
customerListFile << "Card Type: " << p->getType();
}
if ( p->getPaymentType() == "Cheque")
{
customerListFile << "Bank Name: " << p->getBankName();
customerListFile << "Account Number: " << p->getAccountNumber();
}
}
and here are the .cpp and headers of the payment, etc
