error C2509: 'Draw' : member function not declared in 'bBone'void bBone::Draw(ID2D1SolidColorBrush *Black){

}
Defining virtual functions.
Author
I have a base class called Bone and an inherited class called bBone.
Bone has the virtual function Draw(), but when I go to define Draw() for bBone in the implementation file I get
My tutorial has the definition as part of the declaration so I don't know how to do it separately.

To make sure we are on the same page, do we have:
Bone.h
bBone.h
bBone.cpp
Or is your code different?
Bone.h
class Bone{ public: virtual void Draw( ID2D1SolidColorBrush *Black );};bBone.h
class bBone : public Bone{ public: void Draw( ID2D1SolidColorBrush *Black );};bBone.cpp
void bBone::Draw( ID2D1SolidColorBrush *Black ){}Or is your code different?
From the sound of things, it seems like you didn't declare it. For that see yaustar's post with bBone.h.

Ahh, I see. I didn't declare it in bBone, I thought it would of automatically done that since it was inherited.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Now I have a new problem, as soon as I define my constructor for bBone I get
declarations
definitions

I'm pretty sure that means the compiler can't find the definition for bone's draw function.
Make sure you define the Draw function for bone.

It definitely can find the definition, it's just that error pops up as soon as I define bBone's constructor.

Bone (the base class), not bBone (the derived class). The base class is not abstract, so it needs definitions too.
The reason you don't see the error until you've defined bBone's constructor is that otherwise it doesn't get that far in the error-checking process.

New problem :(
I have a vector of Bones containing a Bone and a bBone, but when I iterate the Draw function through the vector, bBone does Bone's Draw function. I've defined both to have different Draw functions though.
