C++ Class Specification, Implementation problem

I'm having problem getting some separate compilation done. It's simple, but I can't figure out this error.

I'm getting these exceptions:

> 36 C:\Cpp\P6\employee.cpp expected `)' before ',' token 36
> C:\Cpp\P6\employee.cpp expectedinit-declarator before ')' token  36
> C:\Cpp\P6\employee.cpp expected `,' or `;' before ')' token  42
> C:\Cpp\P6\employee.cpp expected `)' before ',' token  42
> C:\Cpp\P6\employee.cpp expected init-declarator before ')' token  42
> 开发者_运维知识库C:\Cpp\P6\employee.cpp expected `,' or `;' before ')' token

for this code:

    /*line 36*/ Employee::Employee(n, id) { //constructor for name and ID

                            setName(n);
                            setID(id);
    };

   /*line 42*/ Employee::Employee(id, d, p, n) {//constructor for all member variables

                        setID(id);
                        setDept(d);
                        setPos(p);
                        setName(n);
    };

the header file looks like(they're public):

         Employee::Employee();
         Employee::Employee(std::string, int);
         Employee::Employee(int, std::string, std::string, std::string);

Any help as to what those errors mean or how I can fix them?

You always have to have a type preceding variable name. You have it in declaration but not in definition. Something like the following should fix it:

Employee::Employee(std::string n, int id) { //constructor for name and ID

                            setName(n);
                            setID(id);
    };

Same goes for the second Employee constructor definition.

Also, it is better to pass std::string by constant reference rather than by value. And... you avatar is rotated 45 degrees left.
